Desert Gardens Sopaipilla & Fry Bread Mix
Here in the Southwest, the Hispanic and Native American peoples have served these mouth-watering breads for centuries. Take this mix home with you to get a taste of this history. As fry bread, enjoy either stuffed or topped with beef, beans, cheese, and green chile for a “Navajo Taco.” As a sopaipilla, save for dessert and add a little honey on top or inside. Either way, you’ll be dining like a true New Mexican. The mix makes approximately 12 individual servings.
Directions: Empty contents into a large bowl. Mix in 3/4 cup of warm water slowly. Fold dough over until smooth. Cover and set aside for ten minutes. Heat about three inches of oil in a pan (350-375 degrees).
- Sopaipillas: Roll dough to 1/8 inch thickness on a lightly floured surface. Cut dough into 4-inch squares. Fry until golden on both sides, turning once. Drain on paper towels. Serve plain or with honey, cinnamon, sugar, or powdered sugar.
- Fry Bread: Form into 2-inch round balls, rise, then roll out. When frying, pop air bubbles to keep from puffing up. Top or stuff with refried beans, meat, and cheese.
