Let’s make it.

Simmer blueberries with sugar and water in a wide lidded saucepan for five minutes.
Rub butter into flour and baking powder, then stir in milk to make a soft dough.
Drop six small spoonfuls onto bubbling berries. Cover tightly and reduce heat to low.
Steam 15–18 minutes without lifting the lid, then check dumpling centers are cooked through. Serve warm.
