Ingredients
- 2 cup all purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 g salt
- 0.75 ml milk
- 1.5 g oil
Instructions
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
- Stir in the milk and mix until the ingredients are fully incorporated.
- Shape the dough into a ball and very lightly knead it until it holds together.
- Divide the dough into about 10 pieces, roll each into a ball, and set them aside.
- Heat enough oil in a 10-inch skillet over medium heat until it reaches roughly 350°F.
- Carefully place the dumpling balls into the hot oil in a single layer, taking care not to crowd the pan.
- Cook until the bottoms are golden brown, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Flip the dumplings and continue frying until the remaining sides are golden, about another 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove the dumplings from the oil and transfer them to paper towels or a cooling rack to drain any excess oil.
- Plate the dumplings and serve immediately. Enjoy.
