It's not as difficult as it seems...

Sift two and a half cup of flour into a bowl. Add two and a half baking powder and one teaspoon of salt. Form a well in the center and add the one and a half teaspoon of vegetable oil and approximately three quarters of water. Mix well to form soft but pliable dough. Knead dough for 5 minutes and form into a ball. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes. Divide dough in half. Roll out dough to form a large round approximately quarter inch thick. Place the dough on the hot tawah. Let cook for a few minutes and then turn onto the next side to finish cooking. The sada should be golden brown on both sides and then can be cut into four sides.

It can be served with any filling such as cheese or even saltfish buljol!! See previous recipe
