1
Use a fork to stir together the flour, salt, sugar and baking powder in a medium bowl.

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and add the oil and eggs.

Use the fork to beat the eggs and oil together, then gradually draw in the dry ingredients a little at a time until the dough starts to hold together.

Scrape the contents of the bowl to a lightly floured work surface (its okay if there are still some dry bits) and fold the dough over on itself 4 or 5 times, gently kneading it smooth.
