chicken

🥗Healthier: turkey

💰Cheaper: chicken thighs

Turkey is leaner; chicken thighs are more affordable.

potatoes

🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes

💰Cheaper: instant mashed potatoes

Sweet potatoes are more nutritious; instant mashed potatoes save time.

Slice 1 large onion and place it in a pot.

Add 6 whole chicken drumsticks to the pot.

Pour in 1 liter of chicken stock.

Cover the pot and turn the heat to low, allowing it to cook for a while.

After some time, add 3 medium-sized potatoes cut into cubes.

Cook until the chicken is done, about 2 hours, then remove the chicken and let it cool slightly.

Once cool, shred the chicken into manageable chunks and break down the potatoes to thicken the stew.

Return the chicken and potatoes to the pot and stir.

Add frozen beans, frozen corn, and julienned carrots (if using fresh carrots, add them before the beans).

Add frozen peas and a splash of Worcestershire sauce for flavor.

In a bowl, mix 1 cup of self-rising flour with 1 teaspoon of baking powder.

Add room-temperature water to the flour mixture and mix until you achieve a thick consistency.

Drop spoonfuls of the dumpling mixture into the stew at random intervals.

Cover the pot with the lid slightly ajar to allow steam to escape, which helps the dumplings rise.

Serve the dumplings on the side and ladle the stew into the center.
