Steps

1To begin making the Indian Spicy Masala Cookie Recipe (Khara Biscuit), in a large bowl combine all the ingredients together and knead to make smooth firm dough. Knead well for about 3-4 minutes.
2Refrigerate the khara cookie dough covered for about 20 to 30 minutes.
3Preheat the oven to 180 C. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
4Remove the khara biscuit from the refrigerator and on a lightly floured surface roll the dough out until it has a 2 mm thickness.
5Using cookie cutters, cut the rolled dough into desired shape and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Place the tray in the oven and bake for about 20 mins or until the edges begin to start during golden brown.
