Golden Syrup Dumplings

Dumplings for dessert? Yes when they are cooked in golden syrup.

Dumplings

• 1 cup water
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 2 tablespoons Golden syrup or honey
• 1 tablespoon butter

METHOD

Sift flour into a bowl. and rub in the butter until it is like breadcrumbs. Beat the egg and milk together, and carefully mix with the flour to make a soft dough. Do not over-mix as this will make the dumplings tough.

Place the water, sugar, butter and golden syrup into a large saucepan and bring to the boil.

Drop in teaspoonfuls of the dough, cover with a lid and simmer over a moderate heat for about 12 minutes or so until cooked. Remove from the heat and serve with warm runny custard or ice-cream.

Serves 4 - 6 people
