Jamaican Fried Dumplings

Ingredients:
wheat flour, white, all-purpose, unenriched
leavening agents, baking powder, double-acting, sodium aluminum sulfate
salt, table
butter, without salt
water, bottled, generic
oil, olive, salad or cooking

Directions:
In a large bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder and salt.
Rub in the butter until it is in pieces no larger than peas.
Mix in water 1 tablespoon at a time just until the mixture is wet enough to form into a ball.
The dough should be a firm consistency.
Knead briefly.
Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until hot.
Break off pieces of the dough and shape into a patty - kind of like a flat biscuit.
Place just enough of the dumplings in the pan so they are not crowded.
Fry on each side until golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels before serving.
