NATIVE AMERICAN BREAD
Steps:
- Begin by making an open fire oven with coals.
- In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast in the warm water and let stand for 5 minutes. In a separate large bowl, mix together the flour, salt, and lard. Knead thoroughly, and then add the yeast mixture and continue to knead until it has reached a dough consistency.
- Cover dough with a clean kitchen towel and set in a warm dark place to let rise for 45 minutes.
- Divide dough in half and knead again to remove any air pockets. Place each half in a separate aluminum pan and press the dough down.
- Push the coals and ashes of the fire to one side, but do not put fire out. Place the aluminum pans on the clean ground of the open fire oven, and bake for 45 minutes.
- Slice and serve with butter.

- The avocado relish is also very easy to make. Simply mash avocado with lime juice, cilantro, jalapeño pepper, salt, and pepper. It's a refreshing and flavorful topping for tacos, burritos, or salads.
- To make the fry bread, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large bowl. Then, cut in shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in water until the dough just comes together. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for a few minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Divide the dough into 12 equal pieces and roll each piece out into a thin circle. Fry the fry bread in hot oil until it is golden brown and crispy.
- To assemble the chili, simply combine all of the ingredients in a large pot and bring to a simmer. Let the chili simmer for at least 30 minutes, or up to an hour, to allow the flavors to develop.
