Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. 2. Cut in Butter: Add butter and rub it into the flour with your fingers until it resembles fine crumbs. 3. Add Liquid: Gradually pour in water or milk while mixing with your hand or a spoon until a soft dough forms. The dough should be soft but not sticky. 4. Knead Lightly: Knead the dough for about 1–2 minutes on a lightly floured surface. Do not over-knead. 5. Form Dumplings: Divide the dough into 8–10 pieces and roll each into a smooth ball or slightly flatten into discs. 6. Fry: Heat 1–1½ inches of oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Once hot (about 350°F/175°C), carefully add the dumplings. Fry until golden brown on all sides, about 6–8 minutes, turning often. 7. Drain: Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. ⸻ Tips: • Don’t overcrowd the pan — fry in batches. • For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of nutmeg or a splash of coconut milk to the dough. • Best served warm!
