dumplings

have never made dumplings. but remember my grans with very fond merories. decided to try something new & hey presto! have found something my 3 children love to eat.

These dumplings are fab! Even my mum ate them and she usually hates dumplings! I added a few herbs and paprika to mine just to spice them up a bit :)

I'm sorry, these dumplings were far to rich for me, im going to stick with good old fashioned suet :]

This recipe is fantastic, and so easy! Suet is full of hydrogenated fat so this makes an excellent alternative and tastes great! :-)

Never attempted them before but our 11yr old loves them when he goes to the neighbors so gave them a go adf my they were great and easy to do, Made the Venison Casseerole the nuts.

Thanks

Dare I admit, that I usually use those packet mixes of dumplings that you just add hot water to. However, half way through my casserole tonight I realized that mother hubbard's cupboard was bare!
I searched the internet and Jamie's recipe appeared. Thank you Jamie!
This recipe was a life saver - quick, easy and using store cupboard ingredients. I added some herbs too. The dumplings were a little bit more pastry-like than usual but still great.

I'm so impressed!

I've always loved dumplings, and now I can make them....this recipe could not be more simple. I added herbs and some cheddar, as suggested by some.....absolutely delicious!!

Thankyou

Did the dumplings - very easy - theres a few too many in the picture so i tried it with 175g flour and 75 butter and it worked a treat! thanks

hi jamie
my daughter bought me your book for xmas, even tho i love cooking. your recipes are great, my family get me to cook there favorite meals all the time
thank you very much. xxx

Great recipe. My 5 year old loved getting her hands in to mix it up and thought they tasted "better than excellent".

just made a sausage casserole and used your dumpling recipe instead of the old fashioned ones with suet, they tasted good although i added a few herbs in them aswell as s&p! Keep up the good work :)

i love dumplings never realy made them from scratch though.i'll have to try this out!!
thnx for the recipesxxxxkatiexxxx

The stew was good, but I wasn't very impressed with the dumplings. I think next time I'm going to hunt down some suet and make it the old fashioned way.

Hi Jamie
My husband made the beef stew along with the dumplings yesterday because we had the first snow of the season. It was true comfort food, and wonderfully warming. Thanks Jamie for giving us the inspiration.

hey jamie,
i am going to attempt to cook the beef and ale stew with dumplings.
i am 20 and the microwave is my life so hopefully all goes well and i dont burn the kitchen down. fingers crossed!! lol
and if things do go well i will be cooking freshly from scratch everyday,bye bye microwave food!!! :)

Hi Jaime , I made your stew today for my family and they loved it, it geat to make when your working knowing you have got something lovely for the family to eat on cold days. i made your dumplings and they were lovely, I will never buy packet mix of frozen ones again.

Thanks
Rosie

Dearest Jamie,

I bought my lovely boyfriend Darren your book for Christmas and i haven't had to cook a meal since!!!!

He went through the cupboards to find out what we were missing from your list and he even invested £100.00 buying a magimix.

He stopped smoking Monday and finds thinking about what he needs to buy to prepare the evening meal a good distraction from the withdrawl symptoms.

Now i don't want you or your readers to think that i'm complaining because i know i've got it made (he even hoovers, irons and cleans the bathroom!!!!!) the only problem i'm having is that everything is so tasty i'm clearing my plate and i'm worried i'm going to be the size of a house!

We're moving to a new home next month and he's informed me he'd like a black gloss kitchen and a range to cook on!

He bought me black diamonds, I think he's a keeper.

Cheers

Hello!
Me and my step-brother are making dinner tonight and he loves Jamie's recipes, so he looked up this website and now we're going to make those dumplings and add it to what we're making. By the way I also bought Jamie's Ministry of Food book for my dad, so I hope he likes it!

THANKS YOU, at last a real easy wat to make dimpling and they are great. Did them for the first time yesterday and they were great, goodbye Beef Suet.

I think its great how you are educating the Country to real food. Keep up the good work.

Hello :)

I'm going to attempt these dumplings tonight :s though being as I want to become a cook I need to have confidence! ;) I dont know if you actually read these emails but I just wanted to say that the recipes I have seen on your dvds are very simple but interesting at the same time. My nan is Italian and has given me new ideas for recipes and eventually I would like to start up my own buisness and promote these recipes. Would you have any tips for me please of how to go about this the best way?

Thanks :)
