To get started with this recipe, we have to prepare a few ingredients. You can cook mandazi- swahili beignets using 8 ingredients and 11 steps. Here is how you cook it.
The ingredients needed to make Mandazi- Swahili Beignets:
- Make ready 3 cups all-purpose flour
- Get 1 tbls instant yeast
- Prepare 2 tbls ghee
- Make ready 1/4 cup sugar
- Take 1 pinch salt
- Take 1 1/4 cup warm milk
- Take 1 tsp sweet fennel seeds
- Prepare 1 tsp cardamom
Steps to make Mandazi- Swahili Beignets:
- In a mixing bowl, add the dry ingredients and mix well to combine
- Add in the ghee and mix until well combined with the flour mixture. Then gradually add in the milk until a soft dough is formed. You may not need to use all the milk so make sure you are adding it gradually.
- Once a dough ball is formed, knead until the dough becomes soft and pliable.
- In a lightly oiled bowl, add the dough and allow to rise until it doubles in size. Do not let it over-rise!
- Punch the dough and form about 8-10 dough balls (this will depend on how big or small you want the mandazi to be)
- On a lightly floured surface and using a rolling pin roll out each ball into a circle that is 1/4 inch thickness. Tip: while you are rolling each dough ball, cover the rest so that they don’t dry out.
- Using a butter knife, cut the dough into 4 triangles, set aside on a lightly floured surface and cover.
- Repeat step 6 and 7 until all the dough is used up. Allow the triangles to rise until they double in size
- Over high heat, heat cooking oil in a deep fryer and cook the mandazi triangles. Do not overcrowd the pan. The mandazi will puff up. Cook each side for 1-2 minutes, or until they turn golden brown.
- Remove from the fryer and allow to cool on paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Serve the Mandazi with a cup of tea or with a beef stew- it is that versatile of a dish!
