BAKED FRUIT DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Grease a 7x11 inch baking dish.
• In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar. Cut in butter. Pour in milk and stir to form a dough. Turn out onto a well-floured surface and roll out. Cut into 6 - 6 inch squares.
• Place a whole apple in the center of each square. Fill the core with blueberries. Drizzle with maple syrup. Pull up corners of dough and pinch edges together to seal. Place dumplings in prepared pan and sprinkle with cinnamon and nutmeg.
• Combine remaining maple syrup with enough water to pour over dumplings to a 1 inch depth in dish. Submerge remaining blueberries and apple peelings with dried orange peel in liquid.
• Bake in preheated oven 45 minutes, basting as necessary, until crisp and browned. Serve warm with sauce.

BEEF STEW WITH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Trim excess fat from the steak and cut the beef into 1-inch pieces. Place in a 4- to 5-quart crock pot along with the carrots, celery, onions, garlic, tomatoes, beef broth, 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme, marjoram, salt, and pepper.
• Cover the slow cooker and cook on low for 8 to 9 hours until vegetables are tender and the beef is very tender. Then, in a small bowl, combine the water and flour and blend with a wire whisk. Stir this mixture into the crockpot.
• In a medium bowl, combine the Bisquick Mix (or any purchased baking mix), 1/2 teaspoon thyme, milk, and melted butter just until the dry ingredients are moistened.
• Drop the dumpling batter by spoonfuls onto the hot and simmering beef mixture in the crock pot. Cover and cook on high for 25 to 35 minutes, until a toothpick poked into the center of the dumplings, comes out clean. Serve immediately.

DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Whilst your stew is bubbling, make the dumplings. Weigh the flour into a bowl and add ½ tsp salt. Stir through the suet and parsley, if using. Make a well in the centre and add 3 tbsp cold water, mix to a dough, adding more water until the dough is firm but pliable. Divide into eight equal pieces and roll in a little more flour into balls. Chill until needed.
• When the stew has about 30 mins to go, arrange the dumplings on top and cover with a lid. With the oven at 160C/140C fan/gas 3, cook the stew and dumplings for 20 mins, then remove the lid and cook for another 10 mins until they're brown and puffed up.

APPLE DUMPLINGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375ºF.
• In a medium pan, melt the butter. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, and salt, and stir until the sugar has melted completely and formed a sauce. Add the apples and toss until the apples are fully coated in the sauce. Remove pan from heat.
• On a floured surface, roll out the puff pastry until it has doubled in size. Cut 4-inch squares.
• Whisk egg with 1 tablespoon of water to form an egg wash.
• Fill each square with 1½ tablespoons of apples. (Reserve extra syrup from apples.) Brush the edges of the squares with egg wash. Fold each corner of pastry over the apples until the apples are completely enclosed in the dumpling. Brush entire dumpling with egg wash.
• Bake for 18-20 minutes, until golden brown. Dust with powdered sugar and drizzle with reserved syrup.
• Enjoy!

HOMEMADE DUMPLINGS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, and the warm water and mix until well-combined.
• Roll out dough on a floured surface and knead until smooth.
• Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.
• Roll out 1 piece of dough into a thin log and divide into 6 or 8 pieces, depending on the size of dumplings you want. Repeat with the remaining dough portions.
• Lightly flour the dough pieces and roll out 1 piece into a thin circle roughly 4-inches (10 cm) in diameter.
• Keep the dumpling wrappers separated with a small piece of parchment paper and repeat with the remaining dough.
• Combine the cabbage, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, and sesame oil in a medium bowl and mix until well-incorporated.
• For the pork filling, combine the ground pork with the remaining teaspoon of salt, the pepper and 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
• For the veggie filling, combine the mushrooms and carrot and microwave for 3 minutes, until soft. Add 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
• For the shrimp filling, combine the shrimp with 1 cup (125g) of the cabbage mixture and stir until well-incorporated.
• To assemble the dumplings, add roughly 1 heaping tablespoon of filling to the center of a dumpling wrapper. With your finger, lightly coat half of the outside of the wrapper with water. Fold the moistened half of the wrapper over the filling and, using your fingers, pleat the edges to seal. Repeat with the remaining fillings and wrappers.
• Heat the oil over medium high in a large skillet and add a few dumplings, cooking them in batches. Once the bottoms of the dumplings start to brown, add a splash of water and cover with a lid. Steam for about 5 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked and the water has evaporated. Transfer the cooked dumplings to a paper towel-lined plate to remove any excess moisture or grease.
• In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and pepper flakes and stir to combine. Serve the dumplings immediately with the dipping sauce.

CHRISTMAS FRUIT DUMPLING IN THE MICROWAVE

Steps:

• Put the water, fruit, fat and sugar in a large pan and slowly heat until all the sugar and fat has dissolved - Tip: you are only melting not cooking so don't let it get too hot..
• Sieve the next five ingredients into a large bowl and mix well to ensure an even spread of the spices.
• Add warm wet ingredients into the bowl of dry ingredients and add the two beaten eggs and mix well.
• Put into suitably sized microwaveable dish lined with cling film, but do not cover over the top with the cling film. I use a glass mixing bowl as the cooking dish to get a nice pudding shape. Place in microwave (timings for 900w) adjust timing for lower or higher power microwave
• Once cooked turn out onto a plate and remove cling film. Allow to cool. This can be sliced up and frozen in handy portions. It's great re-heated and then dry fried to get a tasty crust on it...
• The Scottish dish Clootie Dumpling is the basis for this updated recipe and they eat a slice of this dumpling with a cooked breakfast - naughty but delicious
