Activate yeast by mixing it with sugar and warm water, let sit for 5-10 minutes.

Add 2 cups of flour and 1/2 teaspoon of baking powder to the activated yeast mixture and mix together.

Add 1/3 cup of oil and knead the dough for about 5 minutes.

Let the dough rest for 10-15 minutes.

Knead the dough for another 5-10 minutes, adding up to 1 cup of flour as needed to achieve a soft, non-sticky consistency.

Divide the dough into balls and let them rest covered with a damp paper towel for about 20 minutes.

Mix 1/2 stick of butter with remaining oil and use it to coat the dough while rolling.

Roll out each dough ball, applying the butter and oil mixture as needed.

Cook each roti in a frying pan until golden brown on both sides.
