Categories     Quick Breads

Time 14m

Yield 24 pieces

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1/4 cup cornmeal
3 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, chilled
3/4 cup evaporated milk (or more)
2 cups oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Combine the flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl.
  • Cut in butter until mixture feels crumbly, like sand. You can also mix the ingredients in a food processor.
  • Add just enough evaporated milk to make a stiff but pliable dough. Stir just enough to mix.
  • Pinch off walnut-sized pieces of dough and roll them between your palms to make long, thin ropes, about 10 inches long and 1/4 inch thick. There should be about 24.
  • Heat oil in a deep fryer or large, deep skillet over medium-high heat.
  • When oil has reached 350°, gently lower the festivals into the oil. Fry, turning with a slotted spoon, until golden brown on both sides, 2-4 minutes.
  • Drain on paper towels and serve hot.

This recipe is a joke. It's missing half the ingredients and the instructions are totally unclear.

Do not attempt this recipe unless you are a professional chef. It's way too complicated for the average home cook.

This recipe is a complete disaster. I followed the instructions exactly and the fry bread came out raw and inedible.

I would not recommend this recipe to anyone. It's a lot of work for a mediocre result.

This recipe is a waste of time. I tried it and the fry bread turned out dry and tasteless.

I've tried many fry bread recipes, but this one is by far the best. The bread is perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside.
