Mandazi is a Ugandan dessert (one of very few), kind of like a donut. Kind of. But kind of not. But it's yummy. I roll mine in cinnamon and sugar for extra yumminess, but that part isn't Ugandan--they eat them plain.
2 cups flour
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 Tbls butter
1 egg, beaten
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup water
4 tsp sugar
1/4 tsp allspice
vegetable oil
* sugar and cinnamon mixed together, for rolling the mandazi in, after cooking
Mix together dry ingredients, except sugar. Cut in butter and add sugar. Beat together egg, milk, and water, and add to dry mixture. Knead dough, and roll out on lightly floured surface. Cut into any shape (in Uganda, it's usually triangles, but you could do anything). Deep fry in vegetable oil unil golden brown on all sides.**
** Roll in a mix of cinnamon and sugar after frying, while still hot.
