Shortening, made from vegetable oils, is a solid alternative to butter and margarine in baking and dessert making. Unlike butter, it doesn’t melt at room temperature, making it easier to work with. Its pale yellow color also results in a less yellowish appearance for Char Siu Bao compared to butter's brighter yellow.

I tried this recipe twice. Each time the finished Bao tasted raw and floury. I think I should steam for more than 8 minutes.
well try it and lets us know what time works best
There is no harm to steam longer. It depends on the size of Char Siu Bao and the heat to steam.
Do I have to use so much sugar in recipe ??
