TOMATO DUMPLINGS

Place in a mixing bowl Two cups of flour, One teaspoon of salt, One-quarter teaspoon of pepper, Four teaspoons of baking powder. Sift to mix and then rub in four tablespoons of shortening and use two-thirds of a cup of water to make a dough. Divide into five parts and then roll each piece into squares. Place in the centre of each one a peeled tomato, cut in slices, and season with a little grated onion, parsley, salt and pepper. Fold the dough over. Place in a baking sheet and brush the tops with beaten eggs. Bake in a hot oven for thirty minutes. Serve with cheese sauce.
