Method

1. Mix together flour salt and baking powder.
2. Rub margarine into the dry ingredients until it resembles dry breadcrumbs.
3. Beat egg and add parsley and stir into breadcrumb mixture with a flat bladed knife. You may need a small amount of milk depending on the egg. The mixture has to be workable but not too soft.

2. Drop into hot stew in a casserole dish replace the lid and place in oven at 200C for 20 mins.
