Super delicious and healthy Masala Biscuits Video recipe. Khara Biscuits recipe with step by step pictures. Easy and healthy savory crackers recipe - best with tea/coffee!
Preheat the oven at 180°C for at least 10 mins. Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a bowl, add all the ingredients and mix well. Using your hands, knead until it comes together. Continue to knead well until it forms a smooth pliable dough.
Take a medium sized ball of the dough and roll it evenly & thin (about 2mm in thickness). Using a cookie cutter or knife, cut it into desired shapes of almost equal size. I cut them into 1.5” inch rectangles.
Line these biscuits on the baking tray, prick them over with fork and bake on convection for 12-15 mins until the bottoms & sides are golden brown. Remove from oven and don’t disturb them for 5 mins and then let them cool completely. They might be soft right out of the oven but will harden up on cooling down. Also, the color changes slightly on cooling down.
Store in an airtight container and serve as it is or with coffee/tea. These stay well for over a week.

Notes
Adjust spices as per preference.
If the curd is sour, there might be a slight tangy taste.
Don’t add any water at all. These measurements would be correct to form a soft pliable dough and only then the biscuits turn out crispy.
Pricking the biscuits with fork will stop them from puffing up and hence they would surely turn crispy.
I have experimented the same with 3 tbsp/2 tablespoon of oil and 3 tbsp/4 tablespoon of curd. For a low fat version, this ratio is just as perfect too.
Roll the dough as thin as 2mm for a crispy biscuit.
Oven settings and timings differ for different makes. Keep a close eye on the oven while baking these. Look out for the bottoms to turn golden brown.
The biscuits are soft to touch just out of the oven but will surely crisp up on cooling down. Also, they will slightly change color on top.
