    Tried this recipe and it worked so well (first time at least 😅), and still practicing. Only critic I have is that the sugar is way too much. I'd suggest about 2 tablespoons (1 for each cup of flour).

    We call these mandasi in Malawi. Vitumbuwas are a completely different thing to us😂 we use bananas to make vitumbuwas

    I noticed many comments required measurements
    What worked for me:
    What worked for me
    2 cup Flour
    2 tbsp Yeast or 10 g
    Pinch Salt
    4 tbsp Sugar
    1 egg
    1 big cup / measuring jug warm Water
    Optional
    Milk
    Essence
    * swap milk for water
    * Add a little Essence for taste
    1stp of sugar in one cup of warm water (can make it warm milk or milk with water) add 2 tbsp yeast set assist for 3-5min
    Mix all dry ingredients add egg to yeast mixture
    Add wet to dry ingredients and knead (can add essence
    Cover and set aside for 2hrs
    Ready for frying
    Fry in deep oil medium to low heat is better for it to cook well & don’t make the dough too pourus a little thick will do
