Recipe Introduction

I am originally from South Dakota. This is the recipe for Indian Tacos as served in the Badlands.

List of Ingredients

Fry Bread Ingredients:
1/4 cup sugar
2 cups flour
3 t baking powder
1 t salt
1 cup water (or enough to make a soft dough)
Oil for frying
Toppings:
2 16 oz cans of refried beans
1 lb ground buffalo meat*
1 or 2 packs of taco seasoning
Shredded Lettuce, Chopped Tomatoes, Grated Cheese, Guacamole, Salsa, and Sour Cream


Recipe

Mix all bread ingredients. Using a large spoon, drop dough onto a floured surface and pat down to about 1" thick. Fry in 1"-2" of oil at 350 degrees until golden brown. (Makes six flat tacos.)
To make meat & bean mixture: Brown meat, drain, and stir in beans and seasoning. Spread meat mixture on top of fry bread.
Let people take their choice among the toppings.
*Of course, you can substitute ground beef (or other ground meat) for the buffalo meat.
