| 1. *NOTE: to make your own self-rising (raising) flour, for each pound of flour add 2 teaspoons salt and 2 tablespoons baking powder. | 2. In a large bowl, sift the flour, sugar and salt. Knead until a smooth dough forms, adding more milk if necessary. | 3. Mix and knead the dough {{gently}}. | 4. Too much over mixing and over kneading and the dough will become tough. | 5. Divide the dough into 10 balls, kneading each ball a few times with floured hands. | 6. Press the balls gently to flatten slightly. | 7. In a non-stick pan heat a little bit of oil over medium heat. | 8. Place 5 of the dumplings in the heated pan. | 9. Reduce the heat to low* and fry for approximately 15 minutes, until they are golden brown, turning once. | 10. Stand the dumplings on their side for about 1 minute to brown the edges. | 11. Transfer the dumplings to a plate lined with a paper towel, drain and keep warm. | 12. Repeat with the remaining 5 dumplings. | 13. Serve immediately while still warm. | 14. *NOTE: I tried making these on an electric rage and had difficulty gettin' (there's that "g" missing again -- ) the bakes to fry well. Best to use a gas rage (range) or an electric skillet that isn't temperamental. They can also be deep-fried but that's a bit too greasy for our tastes. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
