  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • 90 ml cooking oil 
  • 320 ml warm water 
  • 1/2 tsp salt

DIRECTIONS:

1. POTATO FILLINGS: boil cut potatoes until they are tender. Once cooked, transfer potatoes into a bowl and set aside. 

2. Heat oil in a wok and add diced onions. Stir-fry until onions become translucent.

3. Add a handful of mixed spring onions of coriander  leaves and chillies. Stir-fry for another 1 minute.

4. Next, add the potatoes, salt and pepper. Mix until combined for 2 minutes.

5. Transfer potato filling into a mixing bowl. And while the filling is still hot, add in eggs and mix well. Set aside.

6. PASTRY: add salt into the warm water. Stir to mix.

7. Sift flour and baking powder in a large mixing bowl.

8. Add oil into the bowl. Using fingers, rub mixture until it is crumbly and resembles breadcrumbs.

9. Next, gradually add in the warm water and begin kneading until mixture comes together to form a dough. Don't worry if the dough is not smooth at this stage.

10. Cover the bowl with a cling wrap and let dough rest for at least 30 minutes. Once rested, dough will become soft and pliable.
