Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 Put the flour, seasonings, & suet In a large-ish mixing bowl, mix thoroughly.
Step #2 (If you are adding herbs or extra seasonings, add them now & mix well.
Step #3 ).
Step #4 Add sufficient cold water - bit by bit - to make a pliable dough; it should not be too sticky, but just bound together.
Step #5 Divide the dumpling mixture into 8 portions, & roll this into small balls with floured hands.
Step #6 Drop them into your soup, casserole or stew 20 mins before the end of the cooking time, making sure that the soup, stew or casserole is very hot.
Step #7 Put the lid on IMMEDIATELY & do NOT take the lid off until just before the end of the cooking time, about 15-18 mins to check that they are nearly ready.
Step #8 They should have doubled in size at least, & be very light & fluffy looking! Ladle the soup, stew or casserole into warmed soup bowls & serve 2 dumplings per person.
Step #9 Oven baked: place the dumplings on top of your stew or casserole & cook for about 30 mins at 200C or 400F, or until well risen, golden brown & crusty.
