Basic Frybread Recipe

Anonymous Tue May 23 19:31:11 2006

2 cups flour

1 teaspoon salt

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 cup water

Mix ingredients and let sit for 10-15 minutes. Break off a ball of dough about golf ball size

and pat out no thicker than 1/4 inch. (In some tribal traditions a hole is always made in the

center which has spiritual significance) Fry in deep hot oil to a light golden brown, turn

once to brown both sides. (Oil is hot enough if a small test piece of dough dropped in the

oil begins cooking almost immediately and rises to the top.) Drain bread well and pat with

paper towel to remove excess oil. Keep covered in a bowl while cooking to keep bread

warm. Serving - Usually eaten like bread with soup, stew or posole Variations - Eat with

honey, powdered sugar, cinnamon. Also good with strawberries and whipped cream
