NAVAJO FRY BREAD
Fry bread can be eaten alone or with various toppings such as honey, jam or cheese spread. It is a simple complement to meals in place of buns. My mom used to make this for breakfast on bread baking days.

Steps:
- 1. In the bowl of a food processor, mix the dry ingredients. Stir in 1 tablespoon of the oil and the water, and process until smooth. Turn out onto a lightly floured surface and gently knead until the dough is just elastic and comes together, being careful not to over work. Shape the dough into a ball, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces. Flatten each piece and roll into a 7-inch circle, making as thin as possible. Poke a hole in the center with the handle of a wooden spoon or your finger. In a large saute pan or deep fryer, heat the 6 cups of oil to 360 degrees F. Slip the rounds 1 at a time into the hot oil and cook for 2 minutes, turning once with a long-handled spoon. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remaining dough. Sprinkle the fried bread with powdered sugar and drizzle with honey, as desired and serve.
- 2. In all of these recipes dry ingredients are mixed together then liquid ingredients are added.Oil for frying is required for each recipe (I just stopped adding it as it was a given) Only the Navaho refrigerate before stretching the dough, Mom used to give each of us our own piece of dough to stretch before she fried it for us.
