Servings 18 biscuits

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp cornflour
  • 3/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1/2 tbsp dried parsley
  • Salt to taste
  • 2 tbsp ghee or clarified butter
  • 1/2 cup parmesan cheese grated
  • 5-6 tbsp milk
  • Additional flour for rolling the dough

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, add all-purpose flour, cornflour, baking powder, garlic powder, turmeric powder, parsley and salt. Mix well.
  • Then pour ghee into the bowl and mix thoroughly. Keep mixing until it looks like sand.
  • Add grated parmesan cheese and pour in a little milk. Mix well. Then again pour milk and continue mixing and kneading the dough.
  • Don’t add all the milk at once but add it in small batches. Keep kneading until the dough comes together. Avoid over kneading.
  • Wrap the dough with cling film and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  • Preheat the oven at 180-degree Celsius for 10 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, take the dough out of the refrigerator and unwrap it.
  • Dust the rolling surface with flour. Place the dough over it and roll it out into a circle which should be around 1/2 inch thick. While rolling it, sprinkle dry flour over the dough to prevent it from sticking.
  • Then dip the cookie cutter in dry flour and cut the biscuits. Carefully take them out and place them aside.
  • Take the rest of the dough and roll it out again. Repeat the same process.
  • Line a baking tray with parchment/baking paper. Carefully place the biscuits on the tray 1 inch apart.
  • Using a toothpick, prick the biscuits.
  • Bake them at 180-degree Celsius for 15-20 minutes. The biscuits should become slightly golden in colour.
  • Then take them out and allow them to cool down.
  • Serve or store in an airtight container.
