Start by measuring 2 cups of all-purpose flour into a bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of baking powder to the flour.

Mix in 1 tablespoon of garlic powder, a sprinkle of black pepper, and a little bit of salt.

Gradually add 1 cup of water to the dry ingredients, mixing until a dough forms.

Incorporate a little bit of turmeric powder for color into the dough.

Knead the dough until it is not sticky, adding dry flour as needed.

Let the dough sit for about 10 minutes.

Open the can of A1 sardine in tomato sauce with chili and place it in a pan to fry.

Chop onion and green chili finely and add them to the frying sardines.

Season the sardine mixture with a little bit of salt to taste and cook until the sauce is smooth.

Squeeze a little lemon juice into the sardine mixture for freshness.

Shape the dough into small, smooth balls for frying.

Roll out the dough balls into thin shapes for frying.

Heat oil in a carar (a traditional Guyanese cooking pot) for frying the bake.

Fry the rolled-out dough in the hot oil until golden brown and cooked through.

Prepare the fried sardines with the sautéed onions and green chili to serve with the bake.
