Fried Bread Tacos

Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Fried Bread Tacos.

1. Step 1

   Start by grabbing a large mixing bowl and whisk together the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt until well combined.

2. Step 2

   Next, slowly pour in the lukewarm water, stirring gently until a slightly sticky dough begins to form.

3. Step 3

   Once your dough is ready, let it rest for a bit while you heat up the oil.

4. Step 4

   In a deep fryer or a large saucepan, heat the oil to a sizzling 375°F (190°C).

5. Step 5

   While the oil is heating, divide your rested dough into six equal portions.

6. Step 6

   Take each portion and flatten it into a disc about the size of your palm, creating little rounds of deliciousness.

7. Step 7

   When the oil is hot and ready, carefully fry each dough disc one at a time.

8. Step 8

   Cook them until the bottom is a beautiful golden brown, which should take about two minutes.

9. Step 9

   Use tongs to flip them over and let them cook for another minute until the other side is equally browned.

10. Step 10

    Once done, drain the fry bread on a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil.

11. Step 11

    Now, let’s move on to the filling! In a skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until it’s browned and crumbly, which should take about five to seven minutes.

12. Step 12

    Stir in the drained kidney beans and sprinkle in the chili seasoning, cooking everything together until it’s heated through, about five more minutes.

13. Step 13

    Now comes the fun part—assembling your dish! Place each piece of fry bread on a plate and generously top it with the savory beef and bean mixture.

14. Step 14

    Don’t forget to add a sprinkle of shredded cheese, a handful of chopped lettuce, some diced tomatoes, and a delightful dollop of sour cream on top.
