What is fry bread? Different from fried dough i am assuming?

Ok folks, I'm on the fence... If DW would let me go to an Arby's, I would likely try one just to see, but I'm skeptical. But then again, there's the DW issue... She worked for an Arby's and simply will not go.

When they were young kids, my boys were not Arby's fans. But every once in a while, I'd hear one of them whining, "I'm so hungry, I could eat at Arby's". That was the red flag that I better feed them fast!

1 cup all purpose flour
1 teaspoon of baking powder
1/8 teaspoon of salt
1/3 cup hot water
A pinch of sugar
Enough lard to make about 1" deep in a deep skillet

Mix dry ingredients in a bowl. Add the hot water slowly, I mix it by hand, yeah, gets messy.
Let stand for 30 minutes
Take a golf ball size piece of dough, roll it out flat sprinkling it with flour until it's not sticky. I pat it out by hand till it's about 6" round.
Put it in the hot oil or lard, in a deep skillet 375° seems to work best for me. About 1" of oil is best, don't over heat the oil. Cook until golden brown on both sides, usually 2-3 minutes.
Drain on paper towels and add whatever condiment you desire. Yum!

OH BOY! THANK YOU SEAN!!!!
