This overall dish can take 20 - 30 mins to prepare and serves around 6 people depending on the size you make them.

So, the ingredients needed are as follows:

• 4 cups of all-purpose flour,
• 1 ½ teaspoons of salt ,
• 2 teaspoons of baking powder,
• ½ cup of butter,
• ½ cup of water, and
• 1 cup of olive oil (or any) for frying

PREP TIME – 10 mins

Once you have all your ingredients you will need to put them in a large enough bowl. Stir the flour, salt, and baking powder together. After you have finished stirring those ingredients rub the butter in the mixture and ensure the pieces that might be visible are no larger than the size of a pea. After this step has been completed mix the water in 1 tablespoon at a time until the mixture is moist enough to roll in balls, making sure the dough firm and consistent. Let it sit for 5 mins then proceed.

COOKING TIME – up to 20 mins

In a large skillet heat the oil over medium heat until hot. Break the dough into pieces forming them into a patty like shaped flat biscuit. When frying do not over crowd the skillet. Fry on each side until golden brown, roughly 3 minutes on either side. After completing this step remove dumplings from skillet and drain the excess oil on paper towels before serving.
