3/4 cups warm water

semolina flour for sprinkling
Directions:
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, salt, baking powder, sugar, and egg. Mix until combined.
- Add a little warm water at a time until the mixture forms a ball.
- Knead the dough for 5 minutes until the dough is smooth and elastic.
- Brush the dough with a little vegetable oil.
- Divide the dough into small balls about the size of a ping pong ball.
- Place the dough onto a place and cover with plastic wrap sprayed with nonstick cooking spray.
- Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes.
- On a clean counter, brush the counter lightly with vegetable oil.
- Press down on the dough and flatten. Roll out the dough gently to form a very thin disk of dough.
- The dough should be almost transparent.
- Sprinkle a little semolina over the dough.
- Take the upper edge and fold it over to the center.
- Take the lower edge and fold it over to the center.
- Fold the right edge to the center.
- Fold the left edge to the center to create a long rectangle.
- Sprinkle the dough with a little semolina.
- Place the dough onto a plate and cover. Allow the dough to rest for 15 minutes.
- Brush the counter with a little vegetable.
- Roll out the dough to flatten it. The dough should be three times large thin square.
- In a large skillet, heat a little vegetable oil over high heat.
- Reduce the heat over medium high heat.
- Cook the msemmen for a few minutes until golden brown.
- If the dough puffs up while cooking, then flat by pushing down.
- Turn the dough and allow the other side to cook until golden brown and thoroughly cooked through.
- Place the msemmen onto a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
- Serve with honey, cheese, maple syrup, etc.
