Bur is a traditional Somali recipe for a classic snack of a sweetened flour, milk and egg dough leavened with baking powder that's deep fried to cook. The full recipe is presented here and I hope you enjoy this classic Somali version of: Bur.
Combine the flour, sugar, milk, baking powder and egg in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly to combine, until you have a dough (if the dough is a little sticky add more flour and mix until you have the correct consistency). Now add the oil and knead to distribute thoroughly through the dough.

Lightly-flour a work surface then turn the dough out onto this and roll out to about 6mm thick then cut into pieces. In the meantime, add oil to a wok or deep fryer. When hot add he dough pieces and fry until golden. Drain on kitchen paper and serve warm.
