navajo fry bread in ub

visitors who bring recipes are always welcome at our apartment :-)

Heather brought the recipe for Navajo fry bread with her (she lives and serves on the Navajo Nation in New Mexico) when she came in March. And so we set to making it in our UB kitchen, enjoying the connections that we've discovered between the Navajo and Mongolians- including but not limited to their love of mutton and fried flour concoctions. Fry bread is similar to a Mongolian dish, except the Mongolian version has meat inside of it.


Frying the dough....And then we took the pieces of fry bread and dumped ground beef, cilantro, bell peppers, onions and shredded cheese on top. Fry bread makes an excellent foundation for a taco of sorts.

Anything that allows me to make a mountain of vegetables on top is a-ok with me :-)
