Home-made Mandazi

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

Make sure you use the right Farine which is basically one with raising agents

Adjust the amount of Sucre to your taste and try using different flavours to have variety whenever you have them.

You can use Coconut Lait instead of regular Lait, you can also Ajouter desiccated coconut to the dry Farine or other spices like powdered cloves or cinnamon.

For “healthy looking” mandazis do not roll the dough too thin before frying and use the procedure I have indicated above.

Mélanger the Farine,cinnamon and Sucre in a suitable bowl.

In a separate bowl Fouetter the Œuf into the Lait

Make a well at the centre of the Farine and Ajouter the Lait and Œuf mixture and slowly Mélanger 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.

Couvrir 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, Couper the dough into the desired size setting aside ready for deep frying.

Chauffer your oil in a suitable pot and gently dip the mandazi pieces to Cuire until light brown on the first side then turn to Cuire on the second side.

Servir them warm or cold
