(Recipe adapted from here)
Makes : 48 biscuits
175g plain flour
1/8 tsp bicarbonate of soda
1/8 tsp Chinese five spice powder
1/4 tsp pepper
1/3 tsp salt
25g castor sugar
1 shallot, blended finely
1-3/4 tbsp oil
45ml or enough water
Method :
1. Sift flour, soda and five spice power into a mixing bowl. Add in salt, pepper and sugar. Mix in blended shallots and oil and add in just enough water to combine. Mix into a soft and pliable dough.
2. Roll dough out into a flat rectangle then roll up into a spiral. Put the roll in the freezer for 1 hour (this is done to harden the dough so that cutting it is easier).
3. Slice the roll thinly and deep-fry slices in hot oil over a moderate flame. Remove and drain the biscuits. (note: sliced as thin as possible as it is easier to bite else quite hard to bite if it is thick)
Store cooled ear-like biscuits in airtight containers
