Jamaican fry dumplings are a popular and delicious staple in Jamaican cuisine. These golden brown, crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside dumplings are a perfect accompaniment to any meal. They are also commonly enjoyed as a snack or on their own. In this article, we will provide you with a simple and easy-to-follow recipe for making authentic Jamaican fry dumplings that will surely be a hit at your next meal or gathering.
Jump to RecipeIn a large mixing bowl, combine the dry ingredients (flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and sugar) and mix well. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients (water, milk, and melted butter).
Using your hands, mix the wet and dry ingredients together until a dough forms. Turn the dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead for about 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
Place the dough back into the mixing bowl and cover with a clean kitchen towel. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten it with the palm of your hand. You can also use a rolling pin to flatten the dough into a round shape.
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. Carefully add the flattened dough into the hot oil and fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy. You may need to adjust the heat to prevent the dumplings from burning.
Once the dumplings are cooked, remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain off any excess oil. Serve hot and enjoy!
These Jamaican fry dumplings are best served with your favorite Jamaican dishes, such as jerk chicken or curried goat. They can also be enjoyed on their own as a tasty snack. Now that you have the recipe, go ahead and impress your family and friends with these delicious and authentic Jamaican fry dumplings!
