1 c. warm water
1 pkg. active pkg. yeast
2 tbsp. shortening
1 tsp. salt
2 tsp. sugar
2 or 3 c. flour

In a large mixing bowl, mix warm water and yeast. Add shortening and mix well. The shortening will still be lumpy. Then add salt and sugar and mix well. Add flour, a little at a time until it forms a dough. Then knead the dough for awhile on counter. Place dough back in the bowl and sit it in a warm place to rise for about 30 minutes.

Remove from bowl and knead again for a little while. Break off a small piece and roll out flat. Cut into small squares. Deep fat fry in lots of oil at 400 degrees until brown. Served with chili is really good.
