Ingredients:

200g butter
400g brown sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tsp vanilla extract
420g plain flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
2 tsp curry powder (any mild, sweet, curry powder)
1/2 tsp ground cardamom
180g chopped walnuts or pecans

Method:

Cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating thoroughly to combine after each addition. Now beat in the vanilla extract.

Sift together the flour, baking powder, curry powder and cardamom in a bowl. Add this to the creamed mixture, adding a third at a time. When blended, stir in the nuts. Divide the dough into four portions, form into rolls then wrap each in clingfilm (plastic wrap) and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Remove the rolls from the refrigerator and slice into 6mm thick pieces. Arrange these on an ungreased baking tray then transfer to an oven pre-heated to 170°C and bake for about 12 minutes, or until cooked through and golden brown.

Remove from the oven and allow to cool on the baking sheet for 2 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
