Instructions
- In a bowl, mix warm water, sugar, and yeast. Let it sit for 10 minutes until frothy.
- In another bowl, combine all-purpose flour and salt. Add the yeast mixture and oil. Knead into a soft dough.
- Cover the dough and let it rise in a warm place for 1 hour or until doubled in size.
- Once risen, punch down the dough and divide it into small balls.
- Shape each ball into a flat disc and place them in a steamer lined with parchment paper.
- Steam the discs for about 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
- Serve hot with your choice of curry or soup.
Tips
- Ensure the water is warm, not hot, to activate the yeast.
- For a softer texture, you can add a little milk or yogurt to the dough.
