Combine flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a large dish pan.

Fluff the dry ingredients with both hands to ensure even distribution.

Create a well in the center of the dry ingredients.

Pour in the warm water or milk all at once.

Mix and knead the dough with your hands until it becomes elastic and stretchy.

Add additional flour gradually until the dough is easy to handle and not too sticky.

Allow the dough to rest for 1 hour.

Pinch off a portion of the dough.

Stretch and shape the dough into a circle about 1/4-inch thick.

Heat oil in a deep fryer or large pan.

Carefully place the dough circle into the hot oil and fry until golden brown on both sides.

Remove the fry bread from the oil and place it on paper towels to drain excess oil.
