(South Africa)
Submitted
by: KatjaGirl |
120 g cake flour
10 ml baking powder
2 ml salt
15 g butter |
1 egg
125 ml milk
butter and cinnamon sugar to serve |
Sift the dry ingredients together
and mix in the butter with vinegar’s until it resembles
breadcrumbs. Mix egg and milk and add to above. Boil water (must
be about 3 cm deep) with a pinch of salt in a casserole with a
lid. Use a teaspoon dipped in boiling water to put spoonfuls of
the dough into the boiling water. Cover with tight fitting lid
and cook slowly for 10 minutes (don’t peek, as this will cause
the dumplings to "fall down" and become rubbery). Remove
from heat, pour into a serving bowl and put dots of butter on
top. Sprinkle a lot of cinnamon sugar over and serve with
vanilla custard. |
