ROTI PRATA AND CHICKEN CURRY

Handmade freshly fried flat bread, also known as Roti Prata in Singapore or in Malaysia 'Roti Canai'. Tasty home made Roti Prata taste almost like the original... 'I guess'. No secret recipe, my trial and tested recipe, I must say the taste is right! Success in the making, don't come naturally, do need lots of practice and some skills. At times,  good to watch the Prata man at work showing their skills and amazing energy. Soft, crusty Roti Prata with egg freshly fried are much more tastier than plain Roti Prata.

For many of us here, always busy at work, no worries Roti Prata outlets are almost everywhere. In my opinion, homemade too.... taste at it's best especially with home-cooked curry chicken or fish curry.

In this recipe, which is simple & easy chicken curry, mixed everything to cook with the chicken and do add potatoes. Different style of cooking and the choice of using coconut milk or evaporated milk for this dish. Created a Prata video before, here another style of making and a  few shared ideas with everyone. Follow my taste buds, sambal dish are amazing with these Roti s'.
