Steps

1hr

1

Measure all the ingredients and put them in one bowl
2

Gently add some warm water and mix with fork as you dissolve the sugar
3

Once the dough has loosely come together,start to knead with your hands for 10 or more minutes to make the dough soft and elastic
4

Once the dough is soft and semi stretchy,let your dough rest.place it in a bowl greased with very little oil so that the dough doesn't stick. Let it rest for 10 mins
5

Divide the dough into balls as this depends on the size of mandazi you want
6

Dust the working surface with flour and roll out and cut into whatever shape you fancy.I cut mine into circular shapes by rolling the dough into a circle and cut it with plastic cup to give me a circular shapes
7

Deep fry in hot oil until golden brown on all sides
8

Drain and serve warm
