Como fazer Fry Jacks Belize

In a large bowl, sift together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt.
Cut 1 cup vegetable shortening into the flour mixture using a pastry blender or your fingers until it resembles coarse crumbs.
Gradually add ¾ cup warm water, mixing until a soft, pliable dough forms. Avoid adding too much water; the dough should not be sticky.
Divide the dough into two equal portions and form into rounds.
Let the dough rest for 15-20 minutes. This allows the gluten to relax, resulting in fluffier fry jacks.
Lightly flour a clean work surface.
Roll each dough round into a 10-12 inch circle.
Cut each circle into 2-3 inch strips, then cut the strips crosswise into desired sizes (about 2x3 inches).
Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large skillet or deep fryer to 350°F (175°C).
Carefully fry the fry jacks in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and puffed. For non-puffy fry jacks, make slits in the dough before frying.
Remove the fry jacks from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve immediately. Enjoy your warm, delicious Fry Jacks with your favorite toppings: honey, jam, sugar, refried beans, cheese, or a savory Belizean breakfast!
Frying in very hot oil ensures that fry jacks puff up beautifully during cooking.
