I love to cook and try new things. Our Native American food is something that we all should be eating. I love Fry Bread. You could eat it with honey or with your meal. I wanted to make it for dinner so I researched what to make it with, I found that you can use it as a shell for Navajo Taco's. The meal was amazing.
Ingredients
3c All-purpose Flour
1/2tsp Salt
3tsp Baking Powder
3/4c Milk
Water As Needed To Get Dough To Come Together
Vegetable Shortening Or Lard For Frying
Method
Stir together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl.
Stir with a fork as you pour in the milk; keep stirring for a bit to get
it to come together as much as possible. Add just enough water (about
1/4 to 1/2 cup) to get it to come together.
Cover the bowl with a dish towel and let it sit for 35 to 45 minutes to rest.
When you're ready to make the fry bread, heat about 1 to 2 inches shortening/lard in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Grab a plum-sized piece of dough (or larger if you want larger fry bread) and press it into a circle with your fingers: place it on a clean surface and begin pressing in the center and work your way out, stretching it as you go.
When the circle is about 4 to 7 inches (however big you want it) carefully drape it into the skillet. Allow it to fry on one side until golden brown, about 1 minute, then carefully flip it to the other side using tongs. Fry it for another 30 to 45 seconds.
Remove the fry bread to a paper towel-lined plate and allow it to drain while you fry the other pieces.
Serve warm!
