My favorite Indian Bread Recipe!!!

My mother in law has the BEST recipe for Fried bread. Here goes:

4 C flour
1 T sugar
2 T yeast
1 tsp salt
2 eggs
1 1/2-2 C milk
4 T Butter

Warm milk. Add yeast to soften, add eggs and butter. Mix all ingredients. Knead. Let rise 1 hour. Cover and leave in warm place. Shape into small ovals. Fry in skillet in 1/4 inch deep until golden brown (3-6 minutes). Top with jam, icing, sugar, or butter.

Ok... like I said it is fantastic, but I have a tenancy to change things up some so here is my version of the fry bread.

8 C Whole Wheat flour
1 1/4 C non bleached all purpose flour
2 T sugar
3 T yeast
1 tsp salt
4 eggs
4 C very warm milk
8 T Butter

Warm milk. Add yeast to soften, add eggs and butter. Mix all ingredients. Knead. Let rise 1 hour. Cover and leave in warm place. Shape into small ovals. Fry in skillet in 1/4 inch deep until golden brown (3-6 minutes).

_ You can Top with jam, icing, sugar, or butter.
_ Another way we LOVE these is with chili, lettuce, cheese, tomatoes, salsa, sour cream, onions, green peppers. mmmmmmmmmmmmm yummy!
