Measure 1 cup of maicena (250 ml) using a measuring cup.

Add 1 cup of rice flour to the maicena.

Incorporate 4 tablespoons of powdered milk into the mixture.

Add 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of sugar.

Mix in 1 tablespoon of baking powder, ensuring it's level.

Combine all the dry ingredients well.

Add 1 tablespoon of oil (preferably sunflower or corn oil).

Gradually add 1 cup of warm water, mixing as you go to avoid adding too much at once.

Adjust the consistency by adding more maicena if needed to achieve a soft dough.

Knead the dough until smooth and pliable.

Divide the dough into portions for shaping.

Roll out each portion using maicena on the surface to prevent sticking.

Shape the dough into discs, making a small indentation in the center.

Heat oil in a deep skillet until hot.

Fry each disc in the hot oil until golden brown, flipping when the edges start to brown.

Remove the fried discs from the oil and drain on paper towels.
