Step 1
In a large bowl, whisk the 2 eggs, 1/4 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon baking powder until frothy. Gradually stir in the 2 cups flour to form a soft dough.
Step 2
Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead for 2-3 minutes until smooth. Roll it out very thin, about 1/8 inch thick, using a floured rolling pin.
Step 3
Cut the dough into 2-inch wide strips, then cut each strip into 4-inch long pieces. Make a lengthwise slit in the center of each piece.
Step 4
Heat the 2 cups vegetable oil in a deep skillet over medium-high until a dough scrap sizzles immediately. Fry the dough pieces in batches, turning once, until golden and puffed, about 1-2 minutes per side.
Step 5
Drain the fried diples on paper towels and dust generously with the 1/2 cup powdered sugar while still warm. Serve immediately.
