On March  25th, Carlton School went to Putiki Marae in Wanganui.We learnt how to make fried bread and we are going to tell you how:

Ingredients


3 1/2 c self raising flour
1/2 tsp salt
cold water to mix

good quality oil for frying
How to make it

In a large bowl measure the flour, then add salt...gradualy add enough cold water to make a soft dough, mix through with a wooden spoon, but try not to over mix, as this can make them stiff and flat...

turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and push or roll dough out to 1 1/2 cm thickness..

cut into the desired size, then place each peice into the preheated hot oil and fry til golden on both sides and twice the size...
