Instructions

  1. Whisk the eggs with the sugar and salt until the mixture turns pale.
  2. Add the coconut milk, then the sifted flour and melted butter, mixing until you have a very smooth batter.
  3. Let the batter rest for 20 minutes.
  4. Heat a sapit biscuit mould (or two thin non-stick plates) over medium heat.
  5. Pour a spoonful of batter onto the mould, close it and cook for 30 seconds to 1 minute on each side, until lightly golden.
  6. Immediately roll the biscuit into a cone or fan with a stick while it is still pliable.
  7. Sprinkle with toasted sesame and let cool on a wire rack.
