Cuisine: Kenyan
Ingredients: 750g Self-raising Flour; 6 tablespoons Sugar; 2 Eggs; 1 cup Milk

This is one recipe a lot of people have requested and I have tried to make it as simple as possible and I hope it will work for you. For “healthy looking” mandazis do not roll the dough too thin before frying and use the procedure I have indicated.

Method

Mix the flour, cinnamon and sugar in a suitable bowl.
In a separate bowl whisk the egg into the milk
Make a well at the centre of the flour and add the milk and egg mixture and slowly mix to form a dough.
Knead the dough for 3-4 minutes or until it stops sticking to the sides of the bowl and you have a smooth surface.
Cover the dough with a damp cloth and allow to rest for 15 minutes.
Roll the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 1cm thick piece.
Using a sharp small knife, cut the dough into the desired size setting aside ready for deep frying.
Heat your oil in a suitable pot and gently dip the mandazi pieces to cook until light brown on the first side then turn to cook on the second side.
Serve them warm or cold
