Plain Dumplings
Ingredients
1 cup Flour
1 cup SR Flour
1 heaped tablespoon Dripping
Salt
Cold Water or milk
Method
Combine flour, dripping and salt. Mix with cold water or milk to make the dough stiff. Mix with a knife, using a cutting motion and turning the basin while mixing. Roll in flour and drop into boiling water. Boil for 20 minutes from the time the water comes to the boil again.
