  • About

Traditional kleicha is usually made with dihin hurr (clarified butter). The following is a much lighter version, but yields equally delicious cookies/biscuits. The amount given below is usually doubled or tripled to make an assortment of shapes and fillings.

Ingredients

  • 3 cups (12 oz/340 g) all-purpose/plain flour
  • 1

Method

  • In a big bowl, combine all the dry ingredients. Pour in oil (or oil and melted butter), and rub the mixture between your fingers until it resembles breadcrumbs. Add water or milk, and stir the mixture in a circular movement to incorporate the liquid into the flour. Then knead for about 5 minutes to form a pliable dough of medium consistency.
