Stewed Steak with Suet Dumpling

Ingredients

Directions

The book gives no cooking times; the times in the steps were added in transcription, so check for doneness rather than trusting the clock.

  1. Cut the steak into pieces and brown in a pan.

  2. Add water to cover the steak and simmer until tender.

  3. For the dumpling, mix flour, baking powder, salt, and suet in a bowl.

  4. Add enough water to form a dough, then shape into balls.

  5. Place the dumplings on top of the steak and cover the pot.

  6. Cook for an additional 20 minutes until the dumplings are cooked through.
