Combine flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl; cut in shortening. Stir in warm water. Place dough on a lightly floured surface. Knead and fold until smooth and satiny. Cover and let stand for 15 minutes. Form into 3 cm balls; keep covered. Roll each ball into a thin 8 cm circle. Cover circles with waxed paper, separating circles. Pinch and pull circle edges (lightly) as you drop into preheated oil in deep fryer. Fry 1 or 2 at a time. Fry 1 minute; turn and fry 1 minute or until golden brown. Serve with honey or Orange Honey Butter. Makes about 1 dozen.
