This recipe came from my one and only trip to Kah-Nee-Tah, on the Warm Springs Indian reservation in southern Oregon. It's from about 1983.
Ingredients
- 3 cups flour (white, or 1/2 whole wheat)
- 1 Tbsp baking powder
- 1 Tbl sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 cups buttermilk
- oil for frying
Kah-Nee-Tah Means "Casino Here"
Mix the flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt together in a medium bowl. Stir in the buttermilk until a wet, stiff dough forms.
Heat the oil in a deep kettle or deep fryer to 350 degrees. With floured hands, break off 1 1/2 - 2" pieces of dough out slightly, lay on hot oil. Fry until puffy, about 1 minute. Turn and fry the other side until it's golden. Drain on paper towels, and serve warm.
Notes and Hints and Stuff
- Just Pat Slightly?
This makes more of a puffy little biscuit or donut than a flat fry bread, but it's still really good.
