Recipe: Jamaican Fried Dumplings

Ingredients

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.
Incorporate the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles a sandy texture.
Gradually add the warm water to the mixture, stirring to form a dough.
Knead the dough for 2-4 minutes until combined, then let it rest covered for at least 10 minutes.
Test the oil temperature by placing a small piece of dough in it; it should bubble when ready.
Form the dough into golf-ball-sized balls and slightly flatten them.
Fry the dumplings in the hot oil for 6-8 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden brown.
Drain the cooked dumplings on paper towels and serve warm.
