ABOUT Jeera Khari Biscuits /Puff Pastry Biscuits RECIPE

Khari Biscuits are an absolute rage in Mumbai and the recipe is much demanded. You can use store bought Puff Pastry or can make it yourself at home. You can look up the recipe on my website thefoodsamaritan.com where I have lucidly explained the method and procedure of making it. These delicious bites are had with a cup of hot Ginger – Cardamom Tea – my favourite and are loved by everyone!

Instructions

Thaw the frozen puff pastry sheet for at least 30 minutes in a tropical climate and 1 hour in a cold climate.
Preheat oven to 230°C and line a cookie sheet with Parchment/Butter paper.
Roll out the thawed pastry into a rectangle and sprinkle the cumin powder evenly over it. With a silicone brush dipped in water, brush evenly over the whole rolled sheet.
Cut into finger shapes, rectangles or squares with a pizza cutter and lay the pieces evenly over the prepared cookie sheet.
Bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes until the top is a beautiful burnished golden colour. Then take the cookie sheet out and reverse the biscuits with a spatula.
Lower the heat to 180°C and cook for a further 15 minutes till the pastry has dried inside out and the biscuits are crispy and buttery!
Remove and cool on the sheets. Serve warm or at room temperature.
