Hi,

Thanks for this great recipe!

I just thought id post a correction on one of the sentences on the origin.

“However, most Malaysian Indians are from the Southern State of Tamil Nadu, and there is little relation to Chennai”

Chennai is actually the capital of Tamil Nadu, so there is most definitely a connection.

I love Roti Kanai when it sweet flatbread usually eaten with banana and condensed milk.

Hi Alecia,
Thanks for pointing out the error. It should be only four, not eight portions. I have amended the mistakes in the recipe, and sorry to make you confuse.

I’ve just made this recipe (not yet cooked) but when divided into 8 portions, each weighed only 40g. Is the measurement of 80g here wrong or should I have doubled the recipe? Thanks

Hi Sally,
I have a few curry recipes on this blog, but it may have been Malaysianized.
Here are some of them:

Thanks KP for all your recipes. I will definitely try making Roti Canai as it is a winner here on the Gold Coast! Do you have the curries to eat with it. It has to be eaten with Indian curries and is mild and added with sambal to make it tastier and spicy. This is not so good with Nyonya curries etc. Please if you can, to follow up with the Indian Curries that can go with the Roti. Thanks and appreciate your time and kindness.

First time making this, and it was quite good! Would definitely go fantastic with any South or Southeast Asian curries.

Hi Chris,
I tried to understand your comment with the help of Google Translate.
You are correct. It is very similar to the Chinese scallion pancake, but Roti Canai is flakier, although not as flaky croissant. Also, it usually serves with curry because it is popular among the Indian in Malaysia.
Cantonese fire rice requires very high heat to get the best taste. Many Chinese restaurants use a high power stove to prepare fry rice.
Thanks for your support.

Bonjour Chef
Cette recette ressemble beaucoup à la pâte que l’on utilise pour les crêpes aux oignons vert.
Je pense qu’avoir la bonne farine est préférable.
Une question cher Mr::pourquoi le riz cantonais fait maison ,n’est JAMAIS aussi bon qu’au restaurant. Le riz étant cuit avant, cela vient de la suite de la préparation.
Merci pour votre retour, et je continue à faire toutes vos recettes. Merci pour cela, et bien amicalement de la France. Chris 06
