Serves 4
Ingredients:
300 g all-purpose flour
pinch of salt
10 g (1 scant tablespoon) sugar
190 ml lukewarm milk
10 g fresh yeast (or 1 tsp instant yeast)
5 g butter, melted
1 egg yolk
To fill:
250 g (about 10 ounces) fruit (blueberries, plums, blackberries, apricots, strawberries…)
sugar to taste (optional)
To serve:
cottage cheese
melted butter
(coconut) sugar to taste
To make the dough, mix flour with salt and sugar in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and pour in the warm milk in which you have dissolved the yeast. Let it stand for about 10 minutes, or until the yeast bubbles up. Add the melted butter and the egg yolk and mix everything together. If the dough is too sticky to mix by hand, use a wooden spoon to beat it until it becomes smooth and springy to the touch. Cover the bowl with a clean tea towel and set aside to rise in a warm, draught free room, until it doubles in size. This takes about an hour or longer, depending on the room temperature.
Take about a tablespoon of the dough and flatten it into an oval shape. Put the fruit of your choice in the middle. Larger fruits such as plums and apricots can be used whole, of berries you should use about a spoonful. Add a little sugar if desired and pinch the dough together to form a dumpling. It is important to seal the fruit inside so that no juices will escape. Turn the dumpling upside down and put it on a floured surface to rise.
In a large pan, bring water to boil. Turn the heat down to a gentle simmer and put in about 5 dumplings at a time. Cover and boil about 5 – 8 minutes, depending on size. Take the dumplings out and let dry a little in a colander. If you have a steamer, you can also stem the dumplings instead. I use a stainless steamer basket that I oil well to stop the dumplings from sticking.
Serve warm with cottage cheese, melted butter and sugar to taste.
