Ba-wan (Chinese: 肉圓; pinyin: ròu yuán; Wade–Giles: jou4-yüan2; Pe̍h-ōe-jī: bah-ôan; literally meat sphere) is a Taiwanese snack food consisting of a 6-8 cm diameter disk-shaped translucent dough filled with a savory stuffing and served with a sweet and savory sauce. The stuffing varies widely according to different regions in Taiwan but usually consists of a mixture of pork bamboo shoots and shiitake mushrooms.
