- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 🧂 1 ½ teaspoons salt

STEPS

Gather all ingredients.

Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl.

Rub in butter until the mixture is crumbly.

Mix in water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to form a firm dough; knead briefly.

Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Break off pieces of dough and shape them into biscuit-like patties.

Place dumplings into the hot oil without crowding the pan; fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.

Remove dumplings from the pan and drain on paper towels before serving.
