Ingredients
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons Butter (cold, cubed)
- 0.5 cups Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 4 cups Water or stock (for boiling dumplings)
- 1 tablespoon Optional: Extra parsley for garnish
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Step 2
Add the chopped parsley to the dry ingredients and mix well to distribute the herbs throughout the flour mixture.
Step 3
Using a pastry blender or your fingers, cut the cold cubed butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Step 4
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the milk and egg until fully blended.
Step 5
Pour the milk-egg mixture into the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a fork just until the dough comes together. Be careful not to overmix as this can make the dumplings dense.
Step 6
Bring a large pot of water or stock to a gentle simmer over medium heat. If the dumplings are to be added to a soup or stew, ensure the liquid is hot and ready for cooking.
Step 7
Scoop out spoonfuls of the dumpling dough (about 1 tablespoon per dumpling) and gently drop them into the simmering liquid. Repeat until all the dough is used.
Step 8
Cover the pot with a lid and let the dumplings cook for 10 minutes. Avoid removing the lid during this time to allow the dumplings to steam properly.
Step 9
Once cooked, the dumplings will be puffed up and light. Remove them from the pot using a slotted spoon and serve immediately.
Step 10
Garnish with extra chopped parsley if desired and enjoy your F J S Parsley Dumplings!
