I tried out this recipe, it was nice although its not the same as the maori bread I remember from my childhood.
This recipe makes a very nice "melt in the mouth" crumblyish fry bread, whereas I am more accustomed to the one with a more "chewy" texture along with a sweet taste, kind of like a doughnut flavoured fry bread hehe.
