I tried this recipe as per measurement but a lot of ghee came out of the dough while kneading and biscuits got baked black from base and unbaked from upper side

   While rolling very little ghee may come out which is ok and cookies will always be a little darker from below compared to the top but they will never be uncooked. If they are uncooked then make sure your baking is on the mode that baked from the top also.

   These biscuits are best made in an oven. If you have a microwave you can try it on convection mode. Please check for cooking time then.

Hello mam. Thank you so much for such a healthy recipe. I want to know if it can be baked without an oven, like on the stove? Thank you for your time and help.

   Hi, you can try to bake on a stove top, as you would do a cake in a pressure cooker. Take a pressure cooker add a cup of salt, preheat well for 15 minutes. place a steel stand, place your plate with cookies over it lower the flame and cook on a slow flame for 30 minutes.
