To begin with this particular recipe, we must prepare a few ingredients. You can have cardamon mandazi using 7 ingredients and 12 steps. Here is how you can achieve it.
The ingredients needed to make Cardamon Mandazi:
- Make ready 3 Cups + 2 Tablespoon All Purpose Flour
- Prepare 1 Tablespoon Instant Yeast
- Take 8 Tablespoons Sugar
- Prepare 1 Teaspoon Cardamon Spice
- Prepare 3/4 Cup Milk

Steps to make Cardamon Mandazi:
- Combine the All Purpose Flour, Yeast, Salt and Sugar in a large bowl. I used Instant Yeast which you can mix straight away with the dry ingredients - If you are using Dry Active Yeast, warm the Coconut Milk/ milk in a bowl, add the Yeast and Sugar and set it aside until it froths up
- Whisk the dry ingredients until completely combined
- Add the warm milk into the dry ingredients and begin mixing
- Knead the dough into a soft smooth dough. If dough is too stick add a tablespoon of flour at a time. If it is too hard add a tablespoon of warm milk at a time until it is smooth
- Cover the dough with clean kitchen towel and let it rest until double in size, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours
- After it has doubled punch it down to remove any air trapped in
- Divide the dough into four equal balls
- Roll out the dough and try to make it into a triangle shape
- Cut the rolled out dough into square shapes or any shape you like
- Heat the oil in a heavy bottomed large sufuria/pan, to test whether oil is ready drop a small piece of dough into the oil. If it sizzles up immediately the oil is hot enough to fry the mandazi
- Drop several dough pieces into the oil, do not overcrowd so they get the chance to cook through. Let cook for a few minutes until you see the edges start to brown
- Turn the cardamon Mandazi and cook the second side until golden brown. Serve immediately by sprinkling with icing sugar and take with beverage of choice.
