- 2 cups All-Purpose Flour (Maida)

- 1/4 teaspoon Baking Soda
- 2 tablespoons Yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
- Water, as required
- Oil, for frying
How To Make INDIAN FRYBREAD RECIPE
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and sugar. Mix these dry ingredients well.
- Add the yogurt into the dry ingredients. Start kneading the dough, adding water gradually as required.
- Once the dough comes together, knead it for about 5-7 minutes until it is smooth and elastic.
- Cover the dough with a damp cloth and let it rest for an hour. This will allow the dough to rise and the gluten to develop, resulting in soft and fluffy frybread.
- After an hour, divide the dough into equal-sized balls (about the size of a golf ball).
- Heat oil in a deep frying pan. While the oil is heating up, roll out each ball of dough into a thin, round disc.
- To test if the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of dough into the oil. If it floats to the top almost immediately, the oil is ready.
- Carefully slide the rolled dough into the hot oil. Press gently on the dough with a slotted spoon to help it puff up.
- Fry the bread until it turns golden brown on both sides.
- Remove the bread from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain it on paper towels to remove any excess oil.
- Serve your Indian Frybread hot with a side of Chole (spicy chickpea curry) or simply with a drizzle of honey or a sprinkle of powdered sugar.
