Okay the next one is a Navajo fry bread.....I love Navajo tacos so this has to be good!!

prep time: 10min

cook time : 15 min

Makes: 12 fried breads

2 cups all purpose flour

1 Tbsp Baking powder

1 tsp salt

1 Tbsp plus 6 cups vegetable oil

3/4 c. warm water

1 cup powdered sugar, as optional topping

1 c. honey, as optional topping

In the bowl of a food processor, mix the dry ingredients. Stir in 1 Tbsp. 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 hr. 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 min. 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.
