Dill gives these flaky cookies an extraordinary aroma. I usually shape them into balls. For impressive presentations, I use a small wooden mold called qalab il-kleicha, used for shaping cookies/biscuits. Any small concave mold will do.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup (125 ml) oil
  • ½ cup (4 oz

Method

  • Preheat oven to 375°F/190°C/gas mark 5.
  • In a medium bowl, beat together oil, butter, yogurt, dill, and 2 eggs and the yolk of the third one, reserving the egg-white for glazing.
  • Mix flour, salt, and baking powder, and add to the mixture above.
