It took a surprising amount of searching on the internet. The flat dumpling-style dough recipes were everywhere, but the puffy steamed version was really hard to find. I can't remember where I found it, but this is what I used:
4 cups self-rising flour (or add 2 tsp salt + 2 TBS baking powder to regular flour)
1 cup milk
3/4 cup sugar
In a large bowl dissolve the sugar in the milk (I warmed the milk a little to help with this), then slowly add the flour one cup at a time. Knead the mixture between each cup of flour. (My recipe said to take it out of the bowl for this, but that was just stupid--it was still a liquidy mess until the last cup of flour. I just sort of squished it around one-handed in the bowl while keeping the other hand clean to keep adding the flour.) After all the flour has been added, knead for about 4-5 minutes until the dough is smooth and pliable. Return to the bowl, cover with a towel and let sit in a warm place for about an hour. (I used the inside of the microwave. It didn't look to me like it got much bigger, but what do I know.)
