• Besan-1 cup
• Powdered sugar-1 cup
• Dalda ghee-1 cup
• Baking soda-1/2 teaspoon
• Cardamom (elaichi) powder-1/4 teaspoon

METHOD

• Sieve maida, besan, sugar & baking soda so that they get mixed well & there are no lumps formed.
• Transfer them to a mixing bowl & add elaichi powder & dalda ghee to it.
• Mix well till the mixture appears like bread crumbs.
• Then add milk to it & knead it in the form of a dough.

• Make small balls n then flatten them a little to take the form of a khatai.
• Grease a cookie sheet with a little ghee n then place these khatai on the sheet a little away from one another so that when they rise there is no harm to their shape.

• Allow them to rest for 10 minutes & in the meantime preheat oven for 10 minutes at 180 degrees celcius.
• After 10 minutes, place the cookie sheet inside the oven  bake at 180 degrees celcius for around 15 minutes.
• Keep checking in between as the time may vary for different ovens.

• As the time gets over, check the khatai as it is done.
• Take it out & allow it to cool for 5 minutes.
• Then take the khatai out of the sheet & it is ready to serve.
