Fried Pinepple Dumplings

Fried Pineapple Dumplings
(Makes 10 servings)

Ingredients:

4 cups self-raising flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/4 cup milk
oil, for frying 

Stuffing mix:

1 can crushed pineapple, drained
2 large banana
2 Tablespoons honey
dash of cinnamon

Blend in food processor until well blended.


Directions:

    Sift the flour, sugar and salt into a large bowl, add the milk and mix and knead until smooth dough forms. (Knead dough gently to avoid overworking it and making it tough.  A light touch is all it needs).

    Divide the dough into ten balls, kneading each ball with floured hands. Press the balls gently to flatten them into 3 in rounds.

    Heat a little oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.  Place half the dumplins in the pan, reduce the heat to low and fry for about 15 minutes, until they are golden brown, turning once.

    Stand the dumplings on their sides for a few minutes to brown edges, before removing them from the pan and draining thoroughly on kitchen paper.  

    Let cool for a few minutes then stuff with pineapple & banana mix.
