Combine flour, baking soda, cloves, ginger, cinnamon and salt in a separate bowl and stir with a fork until well mixed. Add dry ingredients to vegetable oil mixture and stir until blended. This is a stiff dough.

Use 1 tablespoon of dough per cookie. You can roll the dough into 1 tablespoon balls by hand if you don't have a scoop. Drop dough balls 4 inches apart. Pat each rounded ball down to flatten it just a trifle.

Bake at 350 degrees until crackly on top and browned. They will get crisp when they cool.
