Method

For baked sev

To make {span class="bold1"}baked sev{/span}, combine all the ingredients in a bowl, mix well and knead into a semi-soft dough, using approx. 2 tbsp of water.
Shape the dough into a cylindrical roll, fill the dough into the “sev press” and press out thin strands onto a greased baking tray.
Bake in a pre-heated oven at 200°c (400°f) for 8 to 10 minutes or till it turns light brown in colour.
Cool the {span class="bold1"}baked sev{/span} and store in an air-tight container. Use as required.

Handy tips:

Ensure you use a sev press plate with very thin holes so the sev bakes faster and is crisper.
If your baking tray is small, make this recipe in 2 batches.
