Flaky Roti |

Here I show you how I make my flaky rotis. It's a very easy recipe, double the ingredients to keep a stash in the freezer for when needed.
I only use cake, plain or all purpose flour, salt to taste and cold tap water for the dough. Use your favourite butter for spreading. The key is to rest your dough between the stages of making the roti.
Hope you'll try my recipe soon and do let me know what you think of it!

I watched your video and was thoroughly impressed by the quality of your work. I have had extreme horrible experiences with finding a recipe that was good as yours. All the other ones I have found on the internet have been EXTREMELY horrible. I cannot tell you how much your video is a divine blessing. Thank you for your quality craftsmanship. I cannot thank you enough. Bless your heart for sharing this recipe.

[@capemalaycooking]

Thank you for your kind words 😊

Delicious - and easy

[@SpuisMaster]

I learned how to make these from a Cape Malay Cookbook a long time ago, and it is still my favourite roti recipe. People are surprised when an Afrikaans dude makes these along with a lekker curry mince or mutton curry.....

[@capemalaycooking]

[@hungrykusinera4123]

Assalamu alaykum mam Salwa ,I've been following you on your Facebook vlog, and I have tried this recipe successfully . I wonder if your have a flat bread recipe for shawarma ? Love from the Philippines 🇵🇭💗

[@kathyk2392]

Hello Salwaa. Just came across your channel. So talented for creating Asian and Western recipes. Did you come from Malaysia?

[@capemalaycooking]

Hello Kathy. Thank you! I’m from South Africa. Our forefathers came from Malaysia amongst other places. 😊

[@donnaherrington7947]

please could you kindly share the roti recipe in the comments.

[@anikathedancer3984]

I tried this ur one step by step but I couldn't achieve a v thin layer with d finally rolling so I f put it in d pan like that

[@capemalaycooking]

Next time try to rest your roti balls a bit longer before rolling and frying.

[@LindaLunaRayne-js9mc]

Can we use self raising wheat flour?

[@capemalaycooking]

No it must be cake flour or plain flour. Self raising flour won’t have the same effect

[@sophiapiloupilou4148]

assalamoualaikoum could i have the written measurements please

[@cairo-giannigeorgia8092]

Can I make this roti a day before, before frying?

[@capemalaycooking]

Yes you can

[@faezahjulie]

Yes you can.i make a whole batch & freeze & use as needed

[@user-nz6rf5df4j]

Roti Canai

[@user-yt1fn5bb2j]

Can you use ghee?

[@faezahjulie]

Yes you can

[@kathyk2392]

This roti is roti canai and it has won the award for Malaysia as the best street food in the world by the Croatian-based travel guide TasteAtlas.

[@capemalaycooking]

It’s similar to roti canai. We make roti this way in South Africa.

[@faiezaebrahim7772]

You don't cook your Rootis. You fry your rootis.
