Fry Bread

I have always Loved Fry Bread/Navajo Tacos, and even though my husband isn't a big fan, I still love making it. I love it Sweet with honey and butter or savory, stacked with meat, beans and the works. You may already have a recipe for the fry bread that you LOVE, if so keep on using it, if not try this one I really enjoyed it.

Indian Fry Bread

4 cups flour

2 tbsp. baking powder

1 tsp. salt

1/2 cup shortening

1 cup warm water

Mix flour, baking powder and salt. Gradually add in the shortening and water. Add only enough water to make dough stick together. Knead dough until smooth, make into fist-sized balls. Cover them with a towel for 10 minutes then pat them out into circles about the size of a pancake. Fry in hot cooking oil in cast iron skillet until brown on both sides. Drain on paper towels.
