3. Add sifted flour and rub with fingers to form crumbs..
4. Add finely chopped Green chillies, ginger and curryleaves. Also add crushed black pepper and black Sesame seeds.
5. Mix well. Now add 1 tsp of yogurt and combine to form a dough.. ( Do not knead the dough like how we do for chapathi)
6. Cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
7. After 30 minutes, add 2 tbsp of powdered sugar and combine.
8. Roll like a log and Slice into 1/2 " thick pieces and give round shape.. Press with fork to form design.
9. Place them on a lined baking tray and bake in an pregeated oven for 20 -25 minutes at 160° C. Baking time may vary according to your oven.
10. If You are doing on a stove top, then preheat a thick bottomed vessel, with a metal rack and lid for 10-15 minutes.
11. Place the shaped cookies on a steel plate ( no need to grease the plate) , and keep on a metal rack.
12. Cover with a towel and a lid.
13. Bake on low flame for around 30 minutes. Then open and check whether the bottom of the Cookies are brown or not...
If not then cover and keep for another 10 minutes and give a check until done.
14. Cool the Cookies completely.
Important Note:
Every oven is different...You have to set the temperature correctly...
Using "oven thermometer" is best for temperature rather than just setting the oven knobs..

May I know why the sugar needs to be added in the end?

[@potstreatsmangalorean9391]

These cookies will be little sweet and spicy.. to get balanced flavour we need to add sugar. If you dont want then can skip.

You can add...the texture may vary a little...

I tried to make and kept in the oven for 30min, yet it became soft like cake. I used all the ingredients as per the measurements given. Why? What might have gone wrong?

Looks like u should have kept for more time ...every oven is different...so it baking time depends on ur oven...
