		The roti is then piled haphazardly onto an oval platter, and it takes whatever shape and form it wants to, twisted, layered, folded.
		The roti counter is in the center as if it's the feature presentation, more important than the large fish tanks of expensive king crab and lobster tucked along the back wall.
		a couple of my favourites are roti telur (telur means egg - essentially roti with egg & onions in it - a delicious tea or dinner) & roti pisang (sliced bananas folded into the roti - fabulous especially with a couple of scoops of ice cream).

		Following "roti canai's" high exposure at the Aichi Expo, those who had been "converted" to the Malaysian cuisine had also posted favourable comments on the Internet.
		These restaurants serve mostly Japanese and Western cuisine but Rosdi does get to throw in Malaysian fare like "roti canai" or "nasi goreng" or "mi goreng" (fried rice or noodles) when the company is asked to cater for special events.

		Roti canai ($2.50) comes with a red-potato curry for dipping.
		Roti egg ($4.95) is the same flaky bread, filled with a thin layer of onions, scrambled egg and green pepper.

		When one orders roti at an Indian restaurant, the expectation is that what will come out will be a baked whole wheat flatbread.
		While the chicken chunks floating in the curry tend to be tough and chewy, the "canai" is worth ordering because the curry itself is wonderfully spicy and rich.
		First the glowing review: it is a pretty tasty treat, chewy roti, slices of sweet beef with that just right balance between toothsome and tenderness...I imagine buying a couple at a roadside stand by the beach in Malaysia with a cold beer would be heaven.

		I had my first version of the Malaysian version of roti canai (pronounced "cha-nai") here, which is thinner than the Chinese version and served with a curry dipping sauce.
		We had the usual—roti canai, lo bak—plus chicken satay, which was tender, hot off the grill, and juicy.
		Quality is just as good, although the roti canai was a bit chewier than before.

		My favorite Malaysian snack is Roti Canai, which you already know if you have read my thoughts about this fluffy, crispy, and flaky dish here.
		While I love dipping my Roti Canai in curry sauce, I also like it sweet -- so sometimes I pour some sugar on my Roti Canai and eat it Indian-style (which is to say with my bare hands).
		Roti Canai with sugar is very easy to make, convenient, and not-too-filling.

		It takes years of practice to swing out the dough until it is paper thin, and their theatrical flourishes when tossing the roti look excessive, but are apparently necessary to ensure the pancake is as light a possible.

		The second dish, roti jala, was a challenge to make because I had to first construct a way of making the pancakes "lacy." I'll go into more details below on how I tried to do that.
		First I prepared the roti jala batter by combing 1 cup coconut milk, 2 egg whites, and 1 cup flour.
		Your roti jala looks like a bit like roti canai, but considering that you didn't use the roti jala mould (I don't know if you could get it over there), it doesn't look too bad.

		Tip: Things to order are Roti Canai (to start), the first noodle dish (#1), Cantonese Chow fun, Mango Chicken, and the beef dish at the end of the poultry section (trust me!!!).
		Had the roti, the beef rendang, and the mango chicken - all of which were fantastic.
