List of ingredients for Dumplings


* 110 g (4 oz) self raising flour
* 50 g (2 oz) shredded Suet
* 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
* 1 tablespoon finely chopped onion
* Cold water to mix
* ¼ teaspoon dried mixed herbs
* Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
* A good pinch of bicarbonate of soda (not essential, but good if you have it)

===Method===
* Add the ingredients to a bowl, gently rub the flour into the suet with your fingers. When you can no longer feel the suet with your fingers, gradually add a few tablespoons of cold water and mix to form a soft but not sticky dough.
* Adjust the consistency of the dough by adding extra flour or water if required.
* Divide into 6 to 8 and form into balls
* Drop then into a stew or casserole about 20 to 30 minutes before the end of cooking
* Alternatively, boil in water or stock for 20 to 30 minutes
===Method: Crispy suet dumplings===
# Preheat the oven to 200° C (400 °F - gas 6)
# Follow steps above
# Gently float on top of a stew or casserole
# Baste with a little of the gravy
# Bake (uncovered) at the top of the oven for 30 minutes or so - the dumplings should be cooked and crispy on the top
