Jamie Oliver Recipe

Ingredients
 250g Self-raising flour
125g really cold butter
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method
Preheat your oven to 190 degrees C/375 degrees F/Gas 5
Put your flour into a mixing bowl
Using a coarse grater, grate your cold butter into the flour
Add a pinch of salt and pepper
Using your fingers, gently rub the butter into the flour until it begins to resemble breadcrumbs
Add a splash of cold water to help bind it into a dough 
Divide the dough into 12 pieces and gently roll each into a round dumpling. The dumplings will suck up quite a bit of moisture so if your stew looks dry - add a cup of boiling water and give it a good stir.
Place the dumplings on top of your fully cooked stew and press down lightly so that they're half submerged.
Cook in the oven or on the hob over medium heat with a lid on for 30 minutes.

Om nom nom......I devoured my dumplings and stew in bed with a movie on :)
