easy peasy. the recipe is on the sie of the suet pack, twice as much self raising flour as suet by weight and enough water added tablespoon at a time to make a soft slightly sticky dough. make them just before you cook them. 20 minutes before serving the stew, gently divide the dough up into pieces about the size of a large egg. have the stew on a low simmer and set the dumplings on the top of the stew evenly spread out. cover the pan tightly and simmer for 20 mins (Ish) DO NOT check the dumplings or you will lose the hot steam that cooks them. Serve. Receive compliments smugly

i vaguely remember my mum put the mixture in muslim and steamed it in the clothes boiler,that was many years ago,
In a slow cooker I just bung them on the top about 30 mins before I dish up .If the cooker has been on low as for a stew ,casserole etc I whack it onto high ten minutes before I put the dumplings in . Recipe as per Woofy . I usually do two heaped Tbsps SR flour and one heaped Tbsp of suet ,salt and pepper .
You can add anything ,cheese ,herbs etc. Just remember the weight must tally .Two to one .
This divides into about eight dumplings .
Or you can steam them separately in a colander over a saucepan of boilng water and serve them up with whatever you are sozzling in the slow cooker .
Oh you must mean a Clootie dumpling
