AUTHENTIC NAVAJO INDIAN FRY BREAD (TACO BREAD)
Step by easy step recipe for a Native American all-purpose flat bread dating back to the nineteenth century. Fry bread is considered a food of inter-tribal unity and is made at all Indian pow wows. It has a crispy outside and a chewy inside. Serve with butter & honey, powdered sugar, or cinnamon & sugar. Or add 'taco' ingredients to the top to make an Indian taco bread salad. You can also fill these with anything then fold them up to eat. Or simply serve plain with soup, stew, etc. *EDITED TO ADD: This is an old recipe and I know many of us no longer use so much salt - if that's the case for you then I suggest REDUCING THE SALT BY HALF.

Steps:
- Combine the flour, powdered milk, baking powder and salt and sift them into a deep bowl.
- Add the 2 tablespoons of lard bits and, with your fingertips, rub the flour and fat together until the mixture resembles flakes of coarse meal.
- Pour in the water and toss the ingredients together until the dough can be gathered into a ball.
- Drape the bowl with a kitchen towel and let the dough rest at room temperature for about 2 hours.
- After the resting period, cut the dough into three equal pieces.
- Then, on a lightly floured surface, roll each piece into a rough circle about 8 inches in diameter and 1/4 inch thick.
- With a small sharp knife, cut two 4- to 5-inch long parallel slits completely through the dough down the center of each round, spacing the slits about 1 inch apart. In a heavy 10-inch skillet, melt the remaining pound of lard over moderate heat until it is very hot but not smoking.
- The melted fat should be about 1 inch deep, add more lard if necessary.
- Fry the breads one at a time for about 2 minutes on each side, turning them once with tongs or a slotted spatula.
- The bread will puff slightly and become crisp and brown.
- Drain on paper towels and serve warm.

Whilte taking a trip to the Grand Canyon, my family drove through the Navajo reservation and stopped at a little cafe for dinner. I complimented the young waiter on the delicious Indian fry bread and he gave me the recipe. It is very easy to make. -Mildred Stephenson, Hartselle, Alabama

BASIC NAVAJO FRY BREAD
I first made this on 06/04/02. Very tasty and easy to make. Fluffier and more bread-like than versions I've tried before. I like to add 1 more tbsp. of shortening and about 1/4 cup of white sugar. I like to use these when I make something for dinner that has a sauce like curry or something. Try different things like adding spices to the dough that's similar to your main dish. My family loves these!
