Time 49m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water
1 pound ground beef
1 (15 ounce) can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained
1 (1.25 ounce) package chili seasoning (such as McCormick®)
vegetable oil (such as Crisco®) for frying

Steps:

  • Mix flour, baking powder, and salt together in a large bowl. Pour in water; stir dough until just combined. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest, about 15 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef; cook and stir until browned, about 5 minutes. Drain off grease. Stir in pinto beans, diced tomatoes with their juices, and chili seasoning until well-blended. Simmer until chili flavors combine, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Grease your hands lightly with oil and pinch off a piece of dough about the size of a baseball. Press it with your palms into a round about 4 inches in diameter and 1/2-inch thick. Repeat with remaining dough.
  • Heat oil to a depth of 2 to 3 inches in a deep fryer or large saucepan. Fry dough rounds in batches until well-browned, puffy, and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
  • Divide fry bread among serving plates while still hot. Spoon chili mixture on top.

THE NAVAJO



The Navajo image

My cousins and I went to The Cheescake Factory and this sandwich was on the menu. It sounded really delicious but unfortunately, it was like $11 or $12 dollars so I settled for something else. But if you also think it sounds awesome, then try it and let me know if it really is. :)

1 teaspoon salt
1 cup warm water (or more)
1 -2 cup shortening or 1 -2 cup cooking oil
2 medium onions, chopped
1/2 lb shredded cheddar cheese
2 cups shredded lettuce
