Ok so no-one replied 🤣 but I carried on anyway, didn’t use the corn flour to thicken it at all and it was lovely as is including the dumplings! Thanks for the recipe.

Are the herbs fresh or dried please?

I think I did it before I added the dumplings but you could always do it after, just remove all the dumplings first then thicken if you’re going to do it after 🙂 hope that helps

When should I thicken this? It doesn’t say when to add the corn flour… before the dumplings? Or after? Thanjs!
