🇲🇾 Malaysia recipe
Roti Canai
Roti Canai is Malaysia's most beloved breakfast flatbread, brought by Indian Muslim immigrants and perfected in Malaysian mamak stalls. The dough is enriched with ghee and repeatedly stretched, folded, and slapped on a hot griddle to create impossibly flaky, crispy layers. Watching a skilled roti canai maker flip and stretch the dough paper-thin is a mesmerizing performance art found across the country.
