Ingredients
- 2 ½ cups all-purpose flour
- ½ teaspoon baking powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 3 large eggs, well beaten
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
- 1 tablespoon white sugar
- ¼ cup water
Steps
- Sift together all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt in a large bowl.
- Mix eggs, 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, and sugar in a small bowl. Quickly stir into the flour mixture. Mix in approximately 1/2 of the water. Knead into a soft, pliable dough, using more water as necessary.
- Cover dough with a tea towel and allow to sit at least 1 hour while desired filling is prepared.
- To use, divide into two parts. Cover half the dough with plastic wrap while you roll out the other.
- Carefully stretch the dough into paper thinness on a lightly floured surface (a clean cotton sheet is ideal) and lightly brush with remaining vegetable oil. Fill and bake as desired.
