Caraway (Ajwain) Cookies

Ingredients

• 1 cup All purpose flour
• 1/4 cup vegetable oil
• 1 heaped tsp Caraway seeds (carom seeds or ajwain)
• 1 1/2 tbsp Sugar
• 3/4 tsp Salt
• 6 tbsp Milk
• 1 tsp butter
• 1 tbsp Yoghurt or curd (plain)

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, mix flour,oil,butter,caraway seeds,salt,sugar, milk and yoghurt until a totally smooth dough is formed. You can add a little more milk if necessary.

On a surface that has been dusted with flour, roll out the dough until it is about 1/4 of an inch thick. Cut out cookies with a cookie cutter (or just cut into your desired shapes). Use a fork to prick each piece so it will not puff up.

Place cookie pieces in a greased baking tray and bake in a preheated oven (180 degrees Centigrade) for 12 to 15 minutes. The cookies should be ready once they turn golden brown in color. Take them out of the oven and cool.

Place in an airtight jar or tin once cooled.
