Navajo Fry Bread

Navajo Fry Bread

Mix by hand
3 c flour
1 t salt
2 t baking powder
add
~1 c warm water
Add more flour if needed so it's not sticky


Once it's no longer sticky, cover and let rise 20 to 30 minutes.
Dust with flour and divide dough up and between hands kneed into balls, dusting the balls to prevent sticking to hands and to the wax paper on the sheet pan.

Heat grease in frying pan.

Form dough balls, using a circular motion, into circles stretching out the dough like pizza dough then flip/slap back and forth between hands much like making tortillas.

Set dough into frying pan. Cooking one at a time and with a fork tear a few holes to vent spin the dough. Turn the bread over to cook the other side til golden on both sides.

Toppings in this order: chili beans, cheese, lettuce, tomatoes, salsa, sour cream
