Butter Jeera Cookies / biscuits as we call them are ideal for tea time. Little sweet and little salty, I love to dip them in my chai, so yum! I have tried making these cookies before but somehow, they never tasted the way I wanted them to and so I tried and tried again and finally I found a recipe which was just perfect.
