Roti Canai/Roti Prata is a popular layered bread eaten in many south-east asian countries including Malaysia and Singapore.

I love this roti for it's sweet and buttery flavour, and tender flaky layers. Amazing served just on its own or alongside chicken curry or condensed milk for dipping, this is a showstopper of a bread!

Full recipe listed below. I hope you enjoy this video :)

INGREDIENTS

½ cup, Butter (at room temperature)
2 tbsp, White Sugar
3 tbsp, Condensed Milk
½ cup, Whole Milk
½ cup, Water
¾ tsp, Salt
3.5 cups, All Purpose Flour
4 tbsp, Vegetable Oil

METHOD

In a large bowl (or stand mixer) add ¼ cup butter, sugar, condensed milk, whole milk, water, and salt. Mix to combine, but don’t worry if the butter doesn’t blend in.

Then add in flour, and mix together until a shaggy dough forms. If using a stand mixer, switch to a dough hook and knead for 7-8 minutes on high speed. Otherwise transfer onto a counter and knead by hand until a smooth supple dough forms (10 minutes).

Pinch dough off into 8 even balls and use the remaining softened butter to coat each ball of dough as well as the bowl that they will rest in. Place dough balls in a greased bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and allow to rest a minimum of 3 hours.

Place a 1/2 tbsp of oil on the work surface and coat one ball of dough. Gently press out the dough until an evenly thick circle of about 8 inches forms.

Using the flipping technique shown in the video, flip the dough 3-4 times or until it is thin enough to see your fingers through it.

Fold into a rectangle and cook in a non-stick pan for 45 seconds to 1 minute on the first side until bubbly and golden. Flip and cook the other side for an additional 30-45 seconds.

Remove from the pan, and clap the cooked roti between your hands to enhance it’s flakiness.

Serve on its own or alongside chicken curry, or condensed milk for dipping. Enjoy! :)
