Melbourne-based Malaysian baker Raymond Tan demonstrates how to make fortune cookies with a Japanese-inspired twist, incorporating cardamom and cinnamon flavours. The technique involves creating a simple batter from egg whites, sugar, melted butter and flour, spreading it thinly before baking, then folding the warm, pliable cookies around custom messages. The cookies are decorated with orange-coloured chocolate to resemble mandarins, a traditional symbol of good luck during Chinese New Year.
