Time 49m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 cups flour (high gluten flour is best)
1 tablespoon baking powder
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
2 medium tomatoes, diced
2 -3 fresh roasted chilies (chopped)
4 -6 cups hot chili beans (or chili with or without beans)
sour cream (optional)

Steps:

  • Mix the flour, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Gradually stir in the water and work it in, adding more water a little at a time, if needed.
  • Knead by hand until soft but not sticky. Form the dough into a round ball, cover and let stand for about 30 minutes. Shape into 2" balls.
  • Heat shortening or cooking oil in a 1 1/2 " deep frying pan until hot.
  • Flatten each ball of dough by patting and stretching into a pizza shape. Carefully place the dough into the hot oil.
  • Fry until edges of the bread are golden and turn to cook the other side. Makes 4-5 pieces.
  • Layer the beans, chilis, onion, tomato,lettuce, cheese and if desired sour cream dollops on top of each piece of fry bread to make Navajo (or Indian) Tacos
  • Fry bread may be served with stews or drizzled with honey or powdered sugar for dessert. Many Navajo cooks prefer to use "Bluebird" a high-gluten flour, in this recipe. Variations: The Navajo Nation in Window Rock serves a taco topped with chicken, chili beans without the beef and the remaining ingredients.
