  • pinch of salt
  • One teaspoon baking powder

Method:

  1. Heat the milk in a microwave for 20 seconds, then add the yeast and 1 tablespoon of sugar. Set aside.
  2. Mix the flour, salt, baking powder, vegetable oil and remaining sugar in a large mixing bowl until just combined.
  3. Add the milky mixture to the flour mixture a third at a time until it comes together and is a little sticky. Be careful, depending on the type of flour/humidity you may not need all the liquid.
  4. Put the dough into a clean bowl cover with cling film and let it rest for about an hour or until the dough has doubled in size.
  5. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a sausage shape and divide into 5 pieces.
  6. Each piece can then be rolled out into a disc, making sure the outer edges are thinner than the middle.
  7. Put your filling onto the disc and close securely. Resting the dough on a small square of baking parchment. Carry on until all the dough is used up.
  8. Steam the dumplings for 20 minutes on a moderate to high heat, then let them rest for 5 minutes before applying to face...
