There were three buns in the bag. I cooked one for my husband today. He first air-fried it for 10 minutes and then transferred it to the stove; adding tomatoes and tofu made it cook faster, which was another way of cooking it.

It tasted a bit bland after being frozen for too long; tilapia is much better.
