Navajo Fry Bread - Chelsey J

2 cups oil for frying

4-5 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons baking powder

2 tablespoons salt

2 ½ cups warm milk

In a large heavy bottomed frying pan, heat 1 inch of vegetable oil or lard to 365° F. In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and milk; mix well. When the dough has pulled together, form it into small balls and pat them flat. Place 3 or 4 at a time into the hot oil. When the rounds begin to bubble, flip them over and cook until golden. Drain on paper towels and serve hot.
