MANDAZI RECIPE (SWAHILI COCONUT DOUGHNUT)
Steps:
- In a large bowl, mix all-purpose flour, coconut flakes, sugar, dry yeast, salt, and cardamom. Using an egg whisk, mix all the ingredients until well incorporated.
- Add lukewarm coconut milk and olive oil to the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon till the dough comes together.
- Transfer the dough to a working surface and knead for about 10 to 15 minutes till smooth and pliable dough is achieved.
- If using a kneading machine, knead on low speed till the dough comes together. After that, increase the speed to medium and knead for about 8 minutes till smooth and pliable dough is achieved.
- Transfer the dough in a large greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap and set aside to rise for about 45 minutes to 1 ½ hours or until the dough has doubled in size.
- Punch the mandazi dough to remove all the air. Divide the dough into eight equal pieces and form round balls.
- Roll the balls into 6" circles and slice with a pizza cutter or a knife into four triangular pieces. Feel free to cut out any other shapes of choice.
- Place all the triangles on a baking sheet, cover with a clean kitchen towel and let them rest for about 5 to 10 minutes.
- In a large saucepan, heat the vegetable oil to about 370 degrees. If the temperature is too low, the mandazi will soak up a lot of fat. If the oil is too hot, the mandazi will burn on the outside but remain raw on the inside.
- Gently drop the mandazi pieces into the oil, few pieces at a time, without overcrowding the pan.
- Fry for 1 to 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown, continuously flipping from one side to another.
- Using a large, slotted spoon, take the mandazi out of the oil and place on paper napkins to soak up the excess fat.
- Serve mandazi with Kenyan spiced tea, Ginger tea or any beverage of your choice.

MANDAZI (AFRICAN DONUTS)
These amazingly soft triangle-shaped donuts are very famous in East Africa where I come from. They are excellent with a cup of tea or coffee. The dash of cardamom adds an authentic taste which makes it different from regular donuts. You can serve it with either honey or jam. Could be also served with curry - that is how we like it...

COCONUT AND CARDAMOM MANDAZI
The coastal Kenyan-style mandazi are laced with freshly ground cardamom. Powdered (confectioners') sugar isn't a traditional addition, but it makes for a lovely presentation. If you wish to serve without the powdered sugar, add a touch more granulated sugar to your dough to make up for it.

Steps:
- Heat 1/2 inch of the oil in a heavy-bottomed pan, pot or Dutch oven fitted with a deep-fry thermometer over medium heat to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C). Line a large plate or baking sheet with paper towels.
- Whisk together the flour, granulated sugar, cardamom, baking powder, salt and cinnamon in a large bowl.
- Make a well in the center and pour in the coconut milk and egg. Starting in the middle, use a rubber spatula to mix together, gradually incorporating the flour until a sticky dough forms. On a lightly floured work surface, knead the dough until smooth, adding a tablespoon of flour at a time as needed to keep your hands from sticking.
- Turn the dough out onto a clean lightly floured work surface. Use a rolling pin to roll out the dough into a 1/4-inch-thick rectangle. Cut the mandazi into about two dozen 2-inch squares or rectangles.
- Working in batches, fry the mandazi, using a spider to turn so both sides cook evenly, until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Drain on the prepared plate. Dust on top a light blanket of confectioners' sugar. Mandazi are best enjoyed warm.

Steps:
- Warm the coconut milk in a pan for a few minutes over a low-medium heat until warm but not hot, then mix in the yeast and set aside for 5 mins. Tip the other ingredients (except the oil) into a large bowl, then add the warm coconut milk and yeast mixture.
- Knead the mixture in the bowl for 15 mins by hand, or 7-10 mins in a stand mixer until smooth. Cover the bowl and leave to rest in a warm place for 1 hr 30 mins until doubled in size.
- Divide the dough into six pieces. Knead each piece lightly on a floured work surface, shape into a smooth ball, then roll into flat circles about 1.5cm thick. Cut each ball into quarters to give you four triangles. Cover with a clean tea towel and leave to rise for 30 mins.
- Heat the oil in a large pan over a medium-high heat, ensuring it is no more than two-thirds full. When it reaches 180C, you're ready to cook. If you don't have a cooking thermometer, carefully drop in one triangle - it should rise to the top and puff up.
- Carefully drop the triangles into the oil, cooking in batches of three. Cook for 2-3 mins, then carefully turn them and cook for another 2-3 mins. If they turn dark brown very quickly, lower the heat. The mandazi should look like they're about to pop and have a white rim around the middle. Drain on kitchen paper and leave to cool a little before serving.
