I received this recipe from a native Indian lady. We've exchanged many tips and recipes over the years, and this dessert has become a favorite. Ingredients:
3 pints fresh or frozen blackberries |
1 cup sugar |
3/4 cup water |
1 tablespoon butter |
dumplings: |
1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
5 teaspoons baking powder |
5 teaspoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1 egg |
1/3 cup milk |
half-and-half or whipped cream, optional |
Directions:
1. In a 6-qt. kettle, combine the blackberries, sugar, water and butter; bring to a boil.
2. For dumplings, combine the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt. In a large bowl, beat egg and milk; stir in dry ingredients until a soft dough forms. Drop by tablespoonfuls onto boiling berry mixture. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes or until dumplings test done (do not lift the cover while simmering).
3. Serve warm with cream if desired. Yield: 8 servings.
