Method
step 1
Tip the flour, baking powder, yeast and salt into bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a dough hook, or a large bowl.
step 2
Turn the mixer onto low and gradually pour in the warm milk. Keep mixing on low speed until a rough dough forms, around 2-3 mins. Be sure not to mix it too much or the bread will be tough.
step 3
Cover and let sit in the bowl for 30 mins. Remove the dough and cut into 8 pieces. Roll each one out to a 12.5 cm circle. Let rest for 10 mins, covered with a tea towel. Cut a small slit in the middle of each one, so they stay on thinner side while frying.
step 4
Heat a heavy saucepan or wok with oil – it should be at least 2 inches deep. When the oil reaches 180C, fry each piece of bread for 1-2 mins on both sides until golden. Place on a rack set over a baking sheet to drain before serving.
