Ingredients

Mix together flour and baking powder.

Mix together butter, salt, and water. Slowly add to the flour while mixing with a wooden spoon until it forms a doughy consistency.

Knead the dough on a floured surface with clean hands.

Fill a cast iron skillet halfway with vegetable oil (usually about an inch). Heat until oil is very hot.

Tear off small balls of the dough, then press them into your palm until they are mini round patties. Drop them into the skillet and fry until golden.

Repeat until all the dough has been cooked. Remove and drain on paper towels or a rack.
