Assaleeak (Eskimo Fry Bread)

Directions

1. Heat one inch or possibly more of oil in a heavy duty pot or possibly small skillet ( 7 to 9 inches ) to 360F ..
2. Meanwhile mix flour and baking pwdr and then fold in sufficient water ( around 1 c. ) till a thick batter forms. Drop the batter by a spoonfuls or possibly ladle into the warm oil, spreading batter as thin as possible with back of spoon so batter almost fills the pot.This will give you a large disc. Or possibly you can make smaller "puffs" just by dropping by heaping tablespoonfuls.
3. Fry till browned on each side ( try to turn only once ). Drain on paper towels. Dust heavily with granulated sugar mixed with cinnamon. Or possibly dip in melted butter then in sugar.Serve immediately.
4. Yield: puffy bread; amounts depend on the size of the dough being fried. Large discs result in 2 or possibly 3 breads in my 7 1/2 inch pot , many more when fried as puffs.
5. You can double the recipe if you like.You might want to add in a dash of salt to the recipe if you like.
