3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper to taste

8 cups vegetable oil for frying

Mix flour, baking powder, salt, pepper and cumin. Slowly add water until
dough forms; it should be soft but not sticky. Knead gently. Let rest 15
minutes. Heat oil to 375 degrees. Roll dough out 1/2 inch thick and pull

let cook until they float to the top. Remove with slotted spoon. Drain.
Serve as a snack, with a salad or a meal.
