1. In a bowl, mix bread flour, baking powder, salt powder, and oil. Form a non-sticky dough by gradually adding a little hot water.
2. Knead the dough for about three minutes, then shape it into a circle and apply a bit of oil on top. Cover it with a wet cloth for fifteen minutes.
3. Divide the dough into six small balls, let them rest for 10 minutes, and roll them out thinly on a floured board using a rolling pin.
4. Cook the roti on a tray over low heat, applying a little oil. Flip and cook both sides until brown spots appear.
5. Place a savory filling in the center and fold the roti.
