The Softest Guyanese Oil Roti (UPDATED) || My New Cast Iron Tawa!- Episode 195

[@annmarto8169]

We are so blessed we have iron tawa here, size small medium and large. I am practising making roti's and every time they came out more soft than before. Thanks for sharing Matthew. You are a master chef Indian cook. 🙏

[@SweetTea742]

To my West Indian people, look no further for a paratha or buss up shut recipe! This one is a keeper!!! The tip on using *less baking powder* is golden! The final product (especially the day after) will *still* remain soft. Chef Matthew, you have done it again ☺️ Thank You!!! Oh Matthew, I'm from Trinidad and saw a tip from Shanty's Chulha (in Trinidad) and realized your grandma did something similarly. I realized they both did not _knead_ the initial dough too much or too long... They essentially just brought it together and smoothened it... I tried it and it worked!!!! I mean, they both have decades of experience so you can't go wrong 😊

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Thank you so much for your kind words. Im telling you these recipes and tips my grandmothers have taught me truly speak for themselves. It all takes some practice but you’ll always get a delicious product in the end.

@@matthewsguyanesecooking4601 You are most welcome. I'm sure it's an honour to have her teach you and pass down her recipes and methods and then you'll do the same with your future family. You literally won't find that kind of information online 🙂🙏🏽🌟

I MADE ROTI WITH YOUR INSTRUCTIONS AND I AM EATING IT WITH GREAT PLEASURE, THANK YOU MATTHEW.

[@tracyhewick3063]

Amazing recipe! I am a white woman that married into a Guyanese family. Made roti using this recipe last weekend and shared with my in-laws. My mother-in-law said it was delicious and better than her roti!!

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Wow that's amazing! I'm so happy you made this and everyone enjoyed it!

[@SweetTea742]

I know this comment is a year old but you actually got a West Indian "mother in law" to say out of her very own mouth that *your* roti is better than hers!!!!!! Tracy, I'm sure that was the first time in history that ever happened to anyone lol!!!! But what a great compliment 🙂 😂

[@mariajudyalvarez4069]

Love your tee shirt 👕. My brother inlaw is Guyanese and his mother, aunt Amy made the best Roti and she served it with Bara (idk if I miss spelled) but delicious😋.

Matthew where is the measurement for the roti like to have it

[@numateetirlokhi]

Thank you for the recipe Matthew. Do you have a butterflap recipe? Would love to see your version. Now that I have your measurements for various Guyanese dishes, I no long need to use a "handful of this, or a spoonful of that." Keep up the great work!

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Hi there. I do not have a butter flap recipe as of yet, but I will do one soon.

[@numateetirlokhi]

Thank you Matthew. Regards to Aunty Chandra and Aunty Chitra. It's always a pleasure to see them when they appear in your videos.

Yes, they are newly listed on amazon, I came across them sometime about a week and a half ago. I agree, they're an awesome company. I got the 12 in

[@moToPow3r]

Great vid! Understanding everyone’s environment is a bit different can you tell me roughly how much water you used? I’m just trying to get a sense is it between 1-3 cups or more like 5+. A rough estimate should help me get close then I can fine tune. Appreciate you posting these recipes!

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

For around 4 cups of flour it is about 2.5 cups water. Maybe a tad less or more.

[@patriciaantonie5869]

Just made some of your oil roti wanted to knowhow to store the remains🖐👏

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

Store wrapped in paper towels in a ziplock bag or airtight container.

Thanks

[@MegaWavesof_888]

I remember my mom add sugar and oil to the roti dough

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

If you look at my older roti recipe I add some sugar and oil. Depends on my mood to be honest. Sugar helps it get brown on the tawa. The oil helps with crispiness and softness. And if you add salt it helps preserve it and gives a little flavor.

[@mariajudyalvarez4069]

Can you make Roti with gluten free flour?

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

I have a gluten free recipe on my channel. Please check it out

[@Maxinealima]

Tried your recipe. Mine not as soft as yours. What temperature (low, med, high) should the tawa be at?

[@matthewsguyanesecooking4601]

The tawa should be at a medium/high. More practice with the recipe, the better it comes out. This recipe took me a while to perfect

[@Maxinealima]
