Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Navajo Fry Bread Delight.
Step 1
Start by heating oil in a deep fryer or a large saucepan until it reaches a sizzling 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
While the oil warms up, grab a large bowl and mix together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
Step 3
Slowly pour in the warm milk, stirring gently until a soft, pliable dough comes together.
Step 4
Now, it’s time to get your hands a little messy! Divide the dough into eighteen equal pieces, each about the size of a golf ball.
Step 5
Flatten or roll each piece into a round shape that’s about 1/2 inch thick, and don’t forget to poke a small hole in the center of each one—this little trick helps them fry evenly and gives them that perfect texture.
Step 6
Once your dough rounds are ready, carefully lower 3 to 4 at a time into the hot oil.
Step 7
Fry them until they turn a beautiful golden brown and you see bubbles forming on the surface, which should take about 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
Step 8
When they’re done, use a slotted spoon to transfer the fry bread to a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil.
Step 9
Repeat this process with the remaining dough, and soon you’ll have a delicious batch of fry bread ready to enjoy! Whether you serve them warm with honey, savory toppings, or just on their own, these delightful treats are sure to be a hit.
Step 10
Happy frying!.
