NAVAJO TACOS ON FRY BREAD



Navajo Tacos on Fry Bread image

This recipe is different than the other recipes posted in that it uses delicious homemade chili beans rather than canned. You have to plan ahead to make this meal, and it takes a bit of work but it is well worth it! It's more of a special occasion meal and is very easily doubled for a larger crowd. My mom made these for us growing up--I think it is originally from Sunset Magazine.

AUTHENTIC NAVAJO INDIAN FRY BREAD (TACO BREAD)



Authentic Navajo Indian Fry Bread (Taco Bread) image

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.

Time 55m

Yield 16-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups oil (for frying)
4 cups all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons baking powder
2 tablespoons salt
2 1/2 cups warm milk (more or less)

Steps:

  • In a heavy large frying pan heat the oil to 365 degrees; Oil is hot enough if a small test piece of dough dropped in the oil begins cooking almost immediately and rises to the top.
  • Mix together dry ingredients in a large bowl; *see note about salt.
  • Gradually add warm milk and mix to make a soft dough.
  • When the dough has pulled together, cover and let sit in a warm place for 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Break off a golf ball sized piece of dough and pat it out flat in your hand, no thicker than 1/4 inch.
  • Place 2 or 3 flats at a time into the hot oil and when they begin to bubble flip them over and fry until they're a nice light golden brown.
  • Remove and drain on paper towels then serve hot (keep them covered in a bowl until you're done frying).
  • You can make larger flats; just make sure they're no thicker than 1/4" and fry one at a time.

AUTHENTIC INDIAN TACO FRY BREAD



Authentic Indian Taco Fry Bread image

My mom snowbirds in Arizona every year and she got this from a lady who makes Indian Tacos to sell at county fairs, etc. It's authentic and, by far, the best Indian Fry Bread I've ever eaten. It's also very soft and easy to work with. It makes enough tacos for 12-15 people, but it's an easy recipe to halve.

Provided by Chef SuzyQ

Categories     < 60 Mins

Time 1h

Yield 12-15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 cups warm water (it's the perfect temperature when it's quite warm, but you can keep your little finger in the liquid)
3 compressed yeast cakes (equivalent to 6 3/4 t. of yeast)
1 tablespoon flour
1 1/2 cups margarine, melted
1 1/2 cups warm milk
3 eggs, beaten until foamy
1 cup sugar
1 teaspoon salt
12 cups flour (no more(no less)
oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • YEAST MIXTURE: Mix the first 3 ingredients and let rest for 10 minutes.
  • BATTER MIXTURE: In a separate mixing bowl, combine the remaining ingredients except for the 12 cups of flour. Mix well.
  • Add yeast mixture to batter.
  • Add 12 cups of flour. Mix well. Dough does not have to be kneaded, but should be well-mixed and should rest for awhile. I've found that if you let it double in size, it's even softer and easier to work with.
  • Form into small "pats," depending on the size you're looking for. Roll or stretch until thin (this dough really puffs up when fried). Fry until golden brown and cooked through.
  • Top with your favorite toppings. We top with hamburger, refried beans, shredded lettuce, tomato, salsa, and sour cream. They're also WONDERFUL with honey butter.
  • If you don't eat them all the first day, you can keep the dough in the fridge and fry it up in the next day or two. Enjoy!
