Eeeevery time fry bread is mentioned...Chu goes on about THE BEST fry bread he's had was Aunty Delsa Moe's. So since it came up again on Sunday and I finally realized that I'd be listening to this same ol' story for the rest of my life...I decided to ask her for her recipe...and here it is!! SO BOMB!! Not gonna lie, He was totally right!!
Ingredients:
2 C Luke warm water
2 T yeast
2 T sugar
2 T oil
2 t salt
4 C Flour (and extra for kneading)
note: just don't add too much flour when kneading. Let it stay a little sticky, otherwise it doesn't turn out as light and fluffy
note 2: works too with pastry flour...it becomes super light and airy...but I think using high grade flour is best
Method:
Combine water, yeast, sugar, oil and salt. Stir it gently about 3 times then let it sit 10 min for yeast to bubble. Add in 4 cups flour a little at a time and knead well. If dough is still sticky sprinkle in a little more flour and knead. Let it rise about 30-45 min till double in bulk.
Oil a flat surface and roll out half the dough with a rolling pin so it's about half inch thick or little less then cut into pieces with a pizza cutter or oiled knife. Separate pieces and let rise about 10 min while you heat up a pan of oil to deep fry them in. Fry both sides till golden brown and drizzle with butter, honey or golden syrup.
She said that it may take a few times to master...buuuut our first batch was OSUM!! So even if that was the junk batch...dang this is a good recipe :)
Enjoy!!
