Adam Liaw’s golden syrup dumplings
Dumplings poached in golden syrup and served with lashings of cream? What’s not to love!
Ingredients
150g self-raising flour
25g soft brown sugar
50g unsalted butter
1 tsp flake salt
125ml milk
thickened cream, to serve
SIMMERING SAUCE
75ml golden syrup
100g soft brown sugar
50g butter
Method
Step 1
Combine the flour, sugar, butter and salt in a bowl and rub the mixture together with your fingers to form breadcrumbs. Add the milk and mix to a thick batter. Lumps are fine.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan, combine the ingredients for the simmering sauce with 2 cups of water. Bring to a simmer, then drop heaped spoonfuls of batter into the sauce. Simmer for 20 minutes, until the dumplings are cooked through.
Step 3
Allow to cool in the syrup for a few minutes, then serve the dumplings in a bowl with a little syrup and some thickened cream poured over the top.
