Combine 2 cups of plain flour with salt, baking powder, and sugar in a bowl using a spatula.

Gradually add warm water and mix until a dough forms; knead for 3-5 minutes until soft.

Cover the dough with oil and a tea towel; let it rest for 30 minutes.

Boil 1.5 cups of split peas for 20-30 minutes until soft; drain and let cool.

Use a food processor to grind the split peas until fine but not too smooth.

Add black pepper, mixed herbs, cumin, curry powder, and all-purpose seasoning to the split peas and mix well.

In a clean pot, heat oil and sauté chopped onion until translucent for 1-2 minutes.

Add salt fish and green seasoning; sauté for 5 minutes.

Pour the filling over the split peas while hot to infuse flavors.

Divide the dough into 8 pieces, roll into balls, and fill each with about a tablespoon of the filling.

Seal the dough balls and create a fork design on the edges for authenticity.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the filled dough balls on medium heat for 3-4 minutes, flipping occasionally until golden brown.
