Navajo Tacos

Dough:

• 2 cups flour
• 1 Tbsp. baking powder
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 Tbsp. oil
• about 3/4 cup warm water
• oil and shortening for frying

Taco meat:

• ground beef
• tomato sauce
• diced onion
• taco seasonings
• cumin

Toppings:

• onion
• cilantro
• lettuce
• tomato

Start by making the dough. Mix the dry ingredients together then slowly add in the oil and water. Mix as little as possible but make sure there are no lumps. Let it sit for about 2 hours, greased on the outside so it doesn't dry out. 

Start prepping the taco meat by cooking up ground beef and onion then adding in the seasonings and tomato sauce and let it cook down a bit. 

Put shortening and oil in a pan to heat for frying. 

Pinch off a ball of dough that will fir in the palm of your hand. Slowly stretch it out to just smaller than the size of a dinner plate. Don't roll it out or squish it or you lose the air bubbles.

Fry quickly on either side till light brown. Drain off the oil on a paper towel and serve with the meat and toppings.
