In a bowl mix flour, salt, sugar and the spices and mix until well combined.

Rub in the margarine and rub until the flour mixure resembles bread crumbs.

Beat in the eggs and mix in completely (I normally rub in the eggs into the flour mixture until it resembles big crumbs)

Add in the milk and mix again. Transfer to a floured surface and knead the dough gently until it comes together. Do not get tempted to overwork it. It should easily tear apart instead of stretching.

In a deep frying pan, heat oil on medium to high and fry the mandazis on both sides until golden brown. Put the cooked mandazi in a bowl lined up with a kitchen paper to drain the excess oil.

Yum with tea or cold milk!
