FRY BREAD TACOS
After enjoying "Navajo tacos" in a restaurant in Window Rock, Arizona, I went home and came up with this recipe. Our daughter's school roommate, a Navajo Indian, helped my improve the fry bread. I've served this often-both at home and on the ranch where I work-and everyone loves it!—Thelma Tyler, Dragoon, Arizona

NAVAJO FRY BREAD - TRADITIONAL
This recipe for Navajo Fry bread is from the Rough Rock Demonstration School in Rough Rock AZ. The Navajo people developed this to use the commodities they received from the government. In some recipes you will find that dry milk is also used. Lard was the original fat used to fry the bread.

- Heat shortening or cooking oil in a 1 1/2 " deep frying pan until hot.
- Flatten each ball of dough by patting and stretching into a pizza shape. Carefully place the dough into the hot oil.
- Fry until edges of the bread are golden and turn to cook the other side. Makes 4-5 pieces.
- Layer the beans, chilis, onion, tomato,lettuce, cheese and if desired sour cream dollops on top of each piece of fry bread to make Navajo (or Indian) Tacos
- Fry bread may be served with stews or drizzled with honey or powdered sugar for dessert. Many Navajo cooks prefer to use "Bluebird" a high-gluten flour, in this recipe.

NAVAJO FRY BREAD
Similar to the Navajo Fry Bread featured on Emeril LaGassi's cooking show, but we used milk instead of water, which results in a softer bread with richer flavor.
