Fluffy Miso Caramel Dumplings With Ice-cream

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

For the dumplings:

• 30g butter
• 1 cup self-raising flour
• 1/3 cup milk

For the caramel sauce:

• 2 cups hot water
• ¾ cup brown sugar
• 2 tbsp honey
• 1 tsp yellow miso
• 45g butter

Method:

1. Combine all the sauce ingredients into a medium sized saucepan and simmer on a low heat until caramel slightly deepens in colour.
   
   
2. Rub butter into the flour until it resembles the texture of fine breadcrumbs. Slowly incorporate the milk until a dough forms. Alternatively, you can do this all in a food processor.
   
   
3. Roll the dough into walnut to golf ball sized balls and place a few at a time into the simmering sauce.
   
   
4. Cook for 10-15 minutes before gently scooping each out.
   
   
5. For a thicker sauce, keep on the heat a little longer before straining through a fine sieve and pouring over the dumplings. Serve with vanilla bean ice-cream.
