Ingredients
Dry Ingredients
- 2 cup Rice Flour
- 2 tbsp All-Purpose Flour also known as maida
- 1.5 tsp Salt or to taste
- 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
- 2 tbsp Sesame Seeds black
- 2 tbsp Chili Flakes
- 1 tbsp Oregano Flakes
Wet Ingredients
- 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
- 2 tbsp Yogurt also known as curd
- 2-4 tbsp Water as needed to reach desired dough consistency
Instructions
Prepare the Dough
- Combine all dry ingredients in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the oil and yogurt. Gradually add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, mixing until a soft, slightly sticky dough forms. Add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together.
Shape and Bake the Crackers
- Divide the dough into 4-5 equal portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into a thin circle (approximately 3-4 inches in diameter). Use a star-shaped cookie cutter to cut out crackers. Prick each cracker several times with a fork.
Bake to Golden Brown
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly brush the crackers with oil. Arrange them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy, flipping halfway through.
Cool and Store
- Remove the crackers from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before storing. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for Perfect Star Crackers
- For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder to the dry ingredients.
- If the dough is too sticky, add a little more rice flour, one tablespoon at a time, until it's easier to handle.
- Don't overcrowd the baking sheet when baking. This ensures even cooking and prevents the crackers from becoming soggy.
- Experiment with different spices! Add a touch of cumin, coriander, or even some finely chopped herbs for unique flavor combinations.
