Receta de Swahili coast kitchens · 🏺 Tradicional · The Indian Ocean side of Kenyan food — coconut, cardamom and fried dough, shaped by centuries of trade between the Swahili coast, Arabia and India.
Swahili coast · fried bread — An ownerless traditional dish, so no cook is credited. The cited article confirms mandazi as a form of fried bread that originated on the Swahili coast of East Africa and is eaten across Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda, commonly flavoured with coconut milk and cardamom. Quantities and method here are this book's own.

Pasos
Mix the flour, sugar, yeast, cardamom and salt. Beat the egg into the coconut milk, then pour it in and bring everything together into a soft dough.
Knead for 8 minutes until smooth, cover, and leave in a warm place for about an hour, until it has visibly risen — it does not need to double.
Roll the dough out about 1 cm thick and cut it into triangles — the classic shape is a circle cut into quarters.
Heat the oil to 170°C. Fry a few at a time, spooning hot oil over the tops for the first few seconds so they puff, then turn once and fry until deep golden — about 2 minutes a side.
💡 Too-hot oil browns them before the middle cooks and they collapse. 170°C, and no hotter.
Drain on a rack, not paper, so the bottoms stay crisp. Eat warm, plain or with chai.
💡 Consejos
- Mandazi is a coastal breakfast eaten with spiced chai, and a street snack everywhere else in Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.
- They are best within an hour of frying. Day-old mandazi is dry — reheat briefly in a hot oven, never a microwave.
- Contains egg and wheat, so not vegan; swap the egg for 2 extra tablespoons of coconut milk and it is.
