Ingredients
- 2 cups self-raising flour
- Plain flour, for dusting
- Water, as needed
- 4 tbsp golden syrup
- 200 g butter
Instructions
- Mix flour and 1 cup of water together in a bowl to create a soft wet dough. Add more water as needed. Pour the wet dough onto a very well floured surface and knead for approximately 5 minutes till smooth. Add plain flour as needed to prevent sticking.
- Shape dough into small sausage-like shapes, and poach in boiling water till they float and are cooked through.
- Heat golden syrup in a pan. Once warm, stir in butter. Serve poured over warm domboys.
Note
Domboys, soft, fluffy dumplings made with flour and water, are a much-loved part of Torres Strait Islands food.
