Ranks compare each pair with 20,000 random ingredient pairs on CompKitchen. How we score pairs

What each ingredient does

Eggs: Bind the dough and add richness and structure as they set.
Baking powder: Releases gas in the oven so the kaak rises and becomes lighter.
Flour: Forms the main structure of the dough once it is baked.
Oil: Adds fat for a tender texture and helps keep the kaak moist.
Sugar: Adds sweetness and, sprinkled on top, a light sweet finish.
