Ingredients

• Wheat flour गेहू का आटा – 2 cups
  
• Semolina सूजी – 1/2 cup
  
• Desiccated Coconut नारियल बुरादा – 1/4 cup
  
• Cardamom Powder इलायची पाउडर – 1/2 tsp
  
• Sugar चीनी – 1 cup
  
• Water पानी – 1/2 cup
  
• Oil तेल – 1/4 cup

Instructions

Prepare the Dough:

• In a large mixing bowl, combine the wheat flour, semolina, desiccated coconut, and cardamom powder.
  
• In a separate bowl, whisk together the sugar and water until the sugar dissolves.
  
• Gradually add the sugar-water mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing well until a soft dough forms.
  
• If the dough feels too dry, add a tablespoon or two of water at a time until it reaches the desired consistency.
  
• Knead the dough for a few minutes until it becomes smooth and pliable.
  
• Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for 15-20 minutes at room temperature.
  

Shape the Biscuits:

• Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
  
• Line a baking tray with Ekvee Foodwrap paper.
  
• Divide the dough into equal portions and roll out each portion into a thin sheet, about 1/4-inch thick.
  
• Using a cookie cutter or a sharp knife, cut out desired shapes from the rolled-out dough.
  
• Transfer the cut-out biscuits onto the prepared baking tray.
  

Bake the Biscuits:

• Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the biscuits are golden brown and slightly crispy.
  
• Remove the tray from the oven and let the biscuits cool completely on a wire rack before storing.
  

For Fried Biscuits:

• Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.
  
• Carefully place a few biscuit shapes at a time into the hot oil. Don’t overcrowd the pan, as this can lower the oil temperature and prevent even cooking.
  
• Fry for 1-2 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly puffed.
  
• Use a slotted spoon to remove the fried biscuits from the oil and transfer them to the prepared plate lined with Ekvee Foodwrap to drain excess oil.
  
• Repeat with the remaining dough, frying in batches. Once fried, let the biscuits cool slightly on the Ekvee Foodwrap before enjoying them warm or at room temperature.
