Fry Bread Tacos

DSC_7156 (1600x1060)These are also known as Indian tacos.  I saw these elsewhere a while back and decided to go with them today.  I cooked some chorizo and ground beef earlier for chili and thought I might have a bit much so I did a part of it with taco seasonings.  I wasn’t sure about the bread part but a search led me to the Pioneer Woman’s recipe page where she spells it all out for you with pictures and droll prose.DSC_7165 (1600x1060)Be sure to heed her advice on the wait time, let the dough rest a while.  These plumped nicely and were pretty good tasting.  I used lard and Crisco to fry mine, too.  I made too many, next time I will downsize the recipe.  It breaks out to 1 tsp baking powder and a rounded 1/8th tsp of salt per cup of flour, mix each cup of flour with 1/4 cup of milk and enough extra water to form a dough ball.  That should be enough for two pieces about 4-5″ in diameter.  Cinnamon sugar or honey would be awesome on these! DSC_7161 (1600x1060)
