- 130 g (~ 1 cup) vegetable suet
- 260 g (~ 2 cups) self-raising flour
- 1 tsp dried herbs
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp garlic granules
- 250 ml (~ 1 cup) water
Add the vegetable suet and self-raising flour to a large bowl, and add the remaining dry ingredients. Mix to combine. Add the water, and mix with a fork to create a sticky dough.
Dollop the dumpling mixture on top of your favourite stew when it's nearly cooked. Add a lid, and return the stew to the oven for a further 20-25 minutes, until the dumplings are firm. I like to remove the lid for the final 10-15 minutes of cooking time, to help them to crisp up a little.
