Kueh| Homemade Biscuits

My dream come true, I wanted to buy a oven and try biscuits. For this birthday my sweet hubby bought me a Oven. So I tried this recipe which came out good and thought of sharing.

This recipe was taught by my neighbour and my dear friend who prepared for Ramadan. Here out in Singapore this is very famous and called Kueh(in Malay) which is done for Ramadan. Its Eggless so I requested her to teach me.

Am happy in sharing my first oven recipe since this is prepared with homemade ghee from my village. Thanks Paati and Amma for sending it across the miles:-)

Ingredients
All purpose flour (Maida) - 6 cups
Sugar (Powdered/Bura) - 4 cups (As per your taste)
Ghee for binding.

Method
Seive all purpose flour and powdered sugar in a bowl.
Warm ghee in a kadai.
Then pour to the flour slowly and mix to a smooth dough if required you can add more ghee to get the consistency. Set aside for 1/2 hour to 1 hour.
Then roll thick by rolling pin and cut them to desired shapes by cookie cutter or make small balls by hand and slowly press to get a shape.Arrange them in a baking tray(with baking sheet).

Preheat the oven at 170 C for 10mins and bake for 15mins till its brown. You can keep an eye on it. You will get a good aroma and flavour of ghee. (Also you keep one biscuit for trial and take a fork and just press. It should be dry out side and nicely baked)

Once done remove when cool and store it.

Yummy biscuits are ready. It can be served with tea/coffee. A great treat for kids too.
