With a pastry blender or two knives, cut in finely the lard. Then gradually stir in the water. Stir with a fork to make a soft, slightly sticky dough. Turn dough on a lightly floured surface and knead gently 8 to 10 times. Roll out or pat 1/2-inch thick, or flatten dough to fit fry pan. Cook in fry pan on hot ashes over open fire(turn bannock to brown both sides) or on baking sheet in oven for approximately 12 to 15 minutes, or until light golden brown. Cut and serve with butter.
