1 tbsp Nestlé Cremora Original

METHOD

For the stew:

1. Place an oiled wide pot with a lid on medium heat. Add the onions and garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of Nestlé Cremora Original, corn flour and slowly pour in the chicken stock while continuously whisking. 

2. Simmer and whisk the gravy for 2-3 minutes, uncovered until the sauce has thickened slightly.

3. Stir in the shredded chicken and frozen vegetables. Turn the heat off while preparing the dumplings.

For the dumplings:

4. In a mixing bowl, use a spoon to stir the flour, Cremora, ⅓ cup of water and salt and pepper together until combined and a loose sticky dough has formed.

5. Add 6 heaped tablespoons of the dumpling dough over the stew, leaving 1cm space between each, and ensuring the dumplings are the same size. 

6. Cover the pot with a lid and cook on medium heat for 6-8 minutes or until the dumplings have risen and cooked through. *Chef’s Tip: The dumplings are cooked once a skewer inserted comes out clean.

7. Garnish the dish with freshly chopped parsley, serve and ENJOY!
