@ghayasbilbees lol ! yes, osmania biscuits need irani chai to go with ! long ago i had asked a partner of Garden Restaurant, Sec'bad, how they made their chai ... he had told me this ( i dont think he was hiding anything ) 1 part good milk + 2 parts water brought to a boil, add the tea leaves and boil the mix ( he calls it cooking the tea ) till you get " that " color .. then sugar .. then the owner personally tastes a cup of this brew to approve the taste ! all the best ! cheers !:-)
Sorry, tried your method of pricking too, they don't have the flavor or texture of osmania biscuits. I'm looking for that powdery texture and that yummy flavor.
I tried this recipe yesterday but I am very sorry to tell you that it didn't come out well. They poped up like small chappatis.. and were not at all crispy. Please let me know, where I could have made the mistake. Thanks.
i'm sorry for you that it didnt turn out well.. i usually prick small holes with a fork on the surface of the biscuit before baking it and this usually helps in keeping it from puffing up.. secondly, you should not leave the dough for long periods after mixing ..that is a method of making soft chapatis.. i hope these tips would help you in your next attempt ..all the best ! :)

Hello,
It is important to note that while making osmania biscuit you should add Gram flour in it
Note : sugar and butter to be mix first properly till sugar dissolve in butter mix maid,gram flour,baking soda,pinch of cardamom and water
then make a small dough out of it and keep it in oven
The recipe he showed for osmania biscuit is totally wrong
don't try this method otherwise you will get hard chappati out of it
