FRY BREAD SANDWICHES
FOR THE FRY BREAD: 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/4 cups milk Oil for deep-fat frying FOR THE SANDWICHES: 12 lettuce leaves 12 slices fully cooked turkey or ham 1 small onion, sliced and separated into rings 6 slices cheddar cheese 18 thin slices tomato 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
TO MAKE THE FRY BREAD: In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder and salt. Add milk and stir to form a soft dough. Cover and let rest for 1 hour.
About 30 minutes before serving, divide dough into six portions. On a lightly floured surface, roll each portion into an 8 inch circle.
In a deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375 degrees F.
Fry bread circles, one at a time, until golden, turning once; drain on paper towels. Keep warm in a 300 degree F oven.
TO SERVE: Cut each circle in half. On six halves, layer the lettuce, turkey, onion, cheese, and tomato; sprinkle with chilies. Top with remaining bread. Serve immediately.
