Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Crispy Jamaican Fried Dumplings.
Step 1
Begin by assembling all the essential ingredients for your delightful dumplings.
Step 2
In a spacious mixing bowl, blend together the flour, baking powder, and salt, ensuring an even distribution.
Step 3
Next, introduce the softened butter to the dry mixture, using your fingertips to rub it in until the texture resembles coarse crumbs, reminiscent of sandy shores.
Step 4
Gradually incorporate cold water, adding one tablespoon at a time, until a firm dough takes shape.
Step 5
Knead the dough gently until it achieves a smooth consistency, like a well-crafted canvas.
Step 6
Heat vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers invitingly.
Step 7
Take pieces of the dough and mold them into biscuit-like patties, each one a promise of flavor.
Step 8
Carefully lower a few dumplings into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Step 9
Fry them until they turn a beautiful golden brown, about three minutes on each side, filling your kitchen with a tantalizing aroma.
Step 10
Once they are perfectly cooked, lift the dumplings from the oil and let them drain on paper towels, ready to be served and savored.

Enjoy the crispy exterior and soft, flavorful interior of these homemade delights!.
