Roti Jala Malaysia

Malaysia has a wonderful wide range of food. You can find mouth watering streets food and one of my favourite is Roti Jala.


Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup all purpose flour
1 1/2 cup milk (if you prefer creamier roti jala use fresh coconut cream)
1/2 cup water
1 egg
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder

Tools:
Non Stick pan
Roti Jala Mold


Method:
Sieve the flour and set aside.
In a big bowl, mix all the ingredients well together and strain the batter.
Heat up non stick pan with medium heat and spray with olive oil.
Pour some batter into the mold and transfer the mold to the pan.
As the batter flows through the holes of the mold, make circular rounds to form the netty patterns (see pic below).
After the top is set and done or when the bottom turns light brown, remove the Roti Jala and fold it into triangle shape.
Serve Roti Jala with some curry.
I prefer mine with thick vegetable dhal curry.
