In a mixing bowl, add 3 cups of flour, 1 teaspoon of baking powder, 1/4 teaspoon of yeast, 1/4 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of sugar. Mix to combine.

Add 1 cup and 1/4 warm water to the flour mixture and mix with a spoon until combined.

Knead the dough by hand until soft and slightly sticky, adding flour for dusting if necessary.

Let the dough rest for 30 minutes covered with a towel in a warm place.

After resting, turn the dough out onto a floured surface and divide it into 5 equal portions.

Shape each portion into a ball and set aside on a floured surface.

Flatten one dough ball and roll it out as thin as possible.

Brush the rolled dough with vegetable oil and sprinkle lightly with flour.

Roll the dough into a log and then coil it up to create layers.

Flatten the coiled dough again and roll it out to the desired thickness.

Heat oil in a skillet and cook the rolled dough for 1 minute on one side, then flip and add oil to the other side.

Cook until bubbles form, then flip again and add more oil as needed until cooked through.

Remove from the skillet and shake in a mug to keep the layers intact.
