  • Heat the butter in the microwave. Mix all the other ingredients, add the melted butter + sourdough and make a smooth dough.
  • Make 5 mounds of dough, wrap plums, if necessary, in them and make a dumpling.
  • Leave on a floured rolling pin to rise for about 30 minutes. Cook in salted boiling water. First 5 minutes under the lid, then turn and cook for 5 minutes without the lid.
  • Dip: cook a thin pudding, then soften with butter.
  • Pour the thin pudding on a plate, put the dumpling and sprinkle with poppy seeds. You can mix the poppy seeds with icing sugar to make it more sweet.
