Method

Mix together all ingredients except the sesame seeds, yoghourt and oil for frying.
Bind with the yoghourt to make a soft, pliable dough. Add a spoon of yoghourt at a time to make sure it doesn’t become too sticky.
Cover and leave for an hour.
Have a bowl of warm water to one side; you will need to dip your hands in from time to time.
