Gradually add 1.5 cups of milk to the dry ingredients, mixing with a spatula.

Once combined, use your hands to knead the dough until it is not sticky anymore, adding extra flour if necessary.

Cover the dough with a towel and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes.

Pinch off pieces of dough and roll them into balls using the palm of your hand.

Heat 1 to 1.5 cups of oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Test the oil by dropping a small piece of dough into it; if it sizzles, the oil is ready.

Carefully place the dumplings into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.

Fry the dumplings until one side is golden brown, then flip them to cook the other side.

Continue flipping the dumplings until they are golden brown on all sides and cooked through.
