A snack enjoyed by many homes in East Africa. Balanced meal and simple in preparation. An inspiration from the Swahili culture

Mandazis are Kenyan local dishes which are perfect for breakfast accompanied by a cup of tea. They can also be taken with other food like beef stew.

These sweet tasting ‘beignets’ are a very common Swahili dish flavoured with sweet fennel and cardamom seeds.#mycookbook

Its a snack originally from the coastarians

From my sister and I

My family used to make this all the time when i was growing up. Its delicious!

Makes 24-30 doughnut holes. Everytime I've made them, it's made 29. The story behind this recipe for me is that for highschool swimming, we had to make a baked good or treat to share with the team. I didn't want to just do something predictable like chocolate chip cookies, so I thought about the other sweets that I enjoy. And I thought about the State Fair and mini donuts popped in my mind. These doughnut holes are simple, fun and quick to make.

My mother's recipe for Foinikota (or Cypriot melomakarona).

I wanted a small, sweet tasting dessert for after dinner that would be super quick to make so immediately thought of desserts in a mug and eventually I found this one and settled on it.Found on www.number-2-pencil.com.
