Mix the flour, sugar, yeast, cardamom, and salt.
Add the coconut milk and knead a soft dough.
Cover the dough and let it rise for 1 hour.
Roll out the dough and cut it into triangles.
Heat the oil to 170°C and fry the pieces for 4 minutes, until puffed and browned.
Transfer the mahamri to paper towels and rest for 6 minutes.
💡 Tip: Do not overdo the cardamom; a small amount gives the dough its East African aroma, while too much turns bitter.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm, with unsweetened tea or lentil stew if desired.
