class="content__text" Life is getting so expensive these days, and everyday costs are creeping up - whether it’s bills, gas or kai - it ain’t easy out here. We can’t go out every night to our favourite food spots but we can make amazing kai at home. Here’s a cheap recipe Aunty Trish shared with us last year to help feed your flat or whānau. Fry bread isn’t very traditional but it is definitely a well known Māori kai. We looked for the cheapest ingredients we could find and all together the cost for making fry bread came to a whopping $8.37 - with all these ingredients you can make a few batches. There are many different ways to eat this fluffy, crispy, pillowy goodness. Smother it with some butter and drizzle with golden syrup for a sweet treat, fill it with some creamed Pāua for a pocket of deliciousness or have it as a side dish with your Oven Hāngī. Get creative with it. This is part of our reo Māori series, Ohinga, created by @mahitahiagency , with funding from @te_mangai_paho and the @nz_on_air Public Interest Journalism Fund.
