    Batter: Dissolve the yeast and sugar in ¼ cup warm water, and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Mix the flour and oil together. Add the yeast solution to the flour and mix. Make a smooth batter. Add water as needed. Consistency should be like pancake mix. Set the batter aside and let it sit in a warm place for half hour. Make sure the batter is fermented, but do not over ferment. After fermenting batter will be little lacy.
