Chef's Notes
Ghee consistency is everything here, my friends. If it is melted, your biscuits will spread into sad, flat pancakes instead of puffing up like proud little domes.
Pro Tip
Do not skip the sifting step! It incorporates air into the heavy flours and guarantees that melt-in-your-mouth texture we all dream about.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Using a screaming-hot pressure cooker with the rubber gasket still attached, turning your innocent kitchen into an accidental pressure-cooked biscuit bomb factory!
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
Why did the Nankhatai go to the royal physician? Because it felt a bit 'crumbly' under the pressure of the cooker!
The Culinary Science
Baking powder reacts with the moisture and heat inside the cooker, releasing carbon dioxide bubbles that get trapped in the fat network, giving nankhatai its signature delicate crumb.
