St. Kitts Coconut Dumplings
Sweet and tender coconut dumplings, a popular side dish or dessert in Saint Kitts and Nevis, often served with stews or enjoyed on their own.
🧂 Ingrédients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 cup Shredded unsweetened coconut
- 1/2 cup Granulated sugar
- 2 tsp Baking powder
- 1/4 tsp Salt
- 1/2 cup Milk(or as needed)
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, shredded coconut, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- 2
In a separate small bowl, combine the milk, vegetable oil, and vanilla extract.
- 3
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The dough should be soft and slightly sticky; add a little more milk if too dry, or a bit more flour if too wet.
- 4
In a large pot or deep skillet, bring about 2-3 inches of water or a mixture of water and coconut milk to a gentle simmer. Do not boil vigorously.
- 5
Using lightly floured hands or two spoons, shape the dough into small, oval dumplings. Carefully drop the dumplings into the simmering liquid, ensuring not to overcrowd the pot.
- 6
Cover the pot and let the dumplings steam for about 15-20 minutes, or until they are puffed up and cooked through. Flip them halfway through cooking for even results.
- 7
Remove the dumplings with a slotted spoon and serve warm.
💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For a richer flavor, use coconut milk instead of water for simmering.
- ✓Don't overmix the dough, as this can result in tough dumplings.
- ✓Ensure the simmering liquid is not boiling rapidly, as this can cause the dumplings to break apart.
