In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Mix well.
Gradually add the warm water, stirring until a dough forms.
Knead the dough on a floured surface for about 5 minutes until smooth.
Cover the dough with a clean kitchen towel and let it rest for 30 minutes.
After resting, divide the dough into 8 equal pieces.
Roll each piece into a ball and then flatten it into a circle about 1/4 inch thick.
Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place one piece of dough into the oil.
Fry for about 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining dough.
Serve warm with your favorite toppings or dips.
