2 tablespoons fine dry breadcrumbs

Tips:

  • For the perfect dumpling dough, ensure your hands are slightly damp before kneading to prevent sticking. Additionally, avoid overworking the dough, as this can result in tough dumplings.
  • When making the filling, use high-quality ground beef and season it generously with your preferred spices and herbs. This will impart maximum flavor to your dumplings.
  • When shaping the dumplings, make sure they are uniform in size and tightly sealed to prevent the filling from seeping out during cooking.
  • For a crispy exterior, pan-fry the dumplings until golden brown before steaming them. This will create a delicious contrast between the crispy outer layer and the tender filling.
  • Serve the dumplings hot with your favorite dipping sauce or condiment. This will enhance the overall taste and experience.

Conclusion:

Jamaican beef dumplings are a delightful and flavorful dish that combines the savory taste of seasoned ground beef with the pillowy softness of dumpling dough.
