Method
Mix the oil with the sugar until the sugar dissolves.
Mix the baking soda with the orange juice and add it to the mixture.
Add all the other ingredients except the flour.
Gradually add the flour to the mixture, until it comes off the sides of the bowl and knead it lightly by hand.
Let it rest for 10 minutes.
Shape the biscuits into whatever shape you like and place them on greaseproof paper in the tray you will use to bake them. Leave a gap between them as they will rise and expand.
Brush the biscuits with a solution of water with honey and sprinkle them with sesame seeds.
