Sift flour and add sugar and baking powder to activate the yeast.

Add a teaspoon of sugar and warm water to the yeast and mix, allowing it to sit for a minute or two until it foams up.

Mix the dry ingredients together and then add the water and yeast mixture.

Gently mix and fold the batter until you get a thick consistency, thicker than pancake mix but not as thick as bread dough.

Cover the bowl and let it sit for 30 minutes.

Heat oil on medium heat.

Shape the mixture with your hand and drop it into the hot oil.
