This dumplings recipe is a dough mixture that adds
the finishing touches to beef stew.
INGREDIENTS
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
pinch salt
3/4 cup milk
2 Tablespoons butter
Mix the dry ingredients by sifting together.
Rub in the butter. Add the milk till a stiff dough
is formed.

dough into a roll about 3 inches thick.

pot on the stove. Cover the pot and steam for about
20 - 25 minutes.
