Jamaican Fried Dumplings
These Jamaican fried dumplings are a simple side, crisp and golden on the outside, with a soft, tender interior. They're made from a basic dough of flour, baking powder, and milk, kneaded lightly and then shaped into small balls before frying. Ready in about 30 minutes, they're often served alongside heartier stews or curried dishes.

Mix and Knead Dough
In a large bowl, whisk together the 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt until they're well combined.
Pour in the 3/4 cup milk and stir with a spoon until a shaggy dough forms. Turn the mixture out onto a lightly floured surface, roll it into a ball, and knead lightly for a minute or two, just until it comes together into a smooth, cohesive dough.
