Fry Bread Indian Tacos
----------------------------------
2 cups flour
1/3 cup powdered milk
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. cream of tartar
1 tsp. salt
2 Tbsp. olive oil
1 cup warm water
1 1/2 '' deep olive oil in pan
Mix all ingredients together. Knead dough using more flour, but not too much. Let rest 30 minutes. Cut into 8 pieces. Stretch and pat dough out into circles. Fry until lightly browned, turning once.
Guacamole
-----------------
2 Haas avacados
4 cloves garlic
1/2 bunch cilantro
1/4 cup mayonnaise
juice of one lime
salt and pepper to taste
Mash peeled avocados and stir in all ingredients.
Meat filling
---------------
1 lb. ground beef
1 pkg. taco seasoning mix
1 cup water
Salsa
---------
fresh tomatoes
onions
cilantro
red peppers
lime juice
cumin
salt pepper
celery leaves
Chop up vegetables and mix all together. I made my salsa from fresh garden vegetables in the summer and froze it.
For dinner, I made the guacamole, meat filling and thawed out the salsa. Then, fried the bread. I heated up a can of refried beans in the microwave, made a pot of Spanish Rice, got out a carton of sour cream and a bag of shredded taco cheese. As the fry breads came out of the oil, my family piled them with fixings and ate. A great supper!!
Listen to live American Indian Radio on Satellite to go with dinner....
