Ingredients
3½ cups flour
2 tsp baking powder
½ cup rice bran oil
¼ cup butter, melted
1 cup plain yogurt
3 beaten eggs
1 tbsp sour cream
1 tbsp white sugar
1 tsp SIDS CRAZY SALT
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 cup fine chopped parsley
1 tbsp rice bran oil
2 tsp paprika
2 egg yolks
2 tbsp sesame seeds
Directions
Preheat oven to 190oC. Line a baking sheet with baking paper. Mix the flour with baking soda in a bowl then set aside.
Mix the canola oil, butter, yogurt, eggs, sour cream, sugar and SIDS CRAZY SALT together in a large mixing bowl until smooth. Gradually stir the flour mixture into the wet ingredients to form a soft dough. Knead and squeeze the dough in the bowl until it is no longer sticky, about 5 minutes. Stir the feta cheese, parsley, olive oil and paprika together in a bowl with a fork to make a filling.
Make each dumpling by pinching off about 2½ tablespoons of dough; roll into a ball about 4 cm across between your hands and press it into a flat circle 7 cm across on your palm. Spoon 1 tablespoon of filling into the center of the circle. Bring the edges of the circle together over the filling and pinch them together to make a fat, round little stuffed dumpling. Set the dumplings onto the baking paper-lined baking sheet, seam sides down. Beat the egg yolks in a small bowl and brush the tops with the egg yolk. Sprinkle each with about ¼ teaspoon of sesame seeds.
Bake in oven until the tops are shiny, brown and crackled, 20-30 minutes.
