Roll each ball into a oval shape (noni) 6 to 7 inches long & 1/2 inch thick.

9

Draw tines of a fork in 3 lines along length of each noni for a decorative design.

10

Paint each noni with egg mixture & sprinkle over all 1/2 ts black cumin seeds.

11

Put noni on an un-greased cookie sheet & bake in a preheated 350 F. oven for 20 to 25 minutes. The brown top will glisten.
