Step 1 of 5
Jamaican Boiled Dumplings
Bring 8 cups of water and ½ tbsp salt to a boil in a large pot.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the flour and 1 tsp salt. Gradually add ½ cup water, mixing with your hands until a dough forms.
Step 3
Divide the dough into equal pieces. Roll each into a smooth ball, then flatten slightly into a thick disc.
Step 4
Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water one at a time. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. Boil for 15–20 minutes until they float and are cooked through.
Step 5
Remove with a slotted spoon, drain, and serve.
