Indulge in the flaky, buttery layers of Roti Prata, a beloved Malaysian flatbread that pairs beautifully with spicy curries or sweetened condensed milk. Perfect for a cozy weekend brunch or a delightful snack any time!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons ghee or cooking oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup condensed milk or sugar

Method

  1. 1

    In a large bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour and salt.

  2. 2

    Gradually add water to the flour mixture, kneading until a soft dough forms. Let it rest for 30 minutes.

  3. 3

    Divide the dough into small balls (about the size of a golf ball) and coat each ball lightly with ghee or oil.

  4. 4

    Flatten each ball into a thin disc using your hands or a rolling pin, then fold it in half and again in half to form a triangle.

  5. 5

    Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and add a little ghee or oil. Cook the folded dough until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes each side.

  6. 6

    Serve hot with condensed milk or sugar for dipping.
