MALAYSIAN ROTI JALA
This is a Malaysian bread called Roti Jala, a very simple, tasty lacy pancake to go with any Dal or Meat gravy dishes. You need a special mould or funnel with 4-5 spouts to make this roti. But I didn't have one, so I improvised with a empty plastic bottle with a small hole and poured into circles :) Works well!!
YOU NEED:
2 Cups Plain Flour
1 Cup Milk
1 egg (optional)
1/2 tsp Salt
1/4 tsp Turmeric
1/2 tbsp Oil
One Plastic Mustard Bottle :)
METHOD:1. Mix all the above and keep aside for about 5-10 mins.Heat a non-stick tava.
2. Pour the batter into the bottle, close the cap,squeeze the batter onto the tava in an irregular circles.
3. Drizzle some ghee if needed.Flip and cook the other side.
4. Serve with Kari Ayam or any Dal dish.

ENJOY!!!

Roti jala is also called lac pancake in english. This goes superbly well with chicken curry. Itz my fav but unfortunately my dgtr has broken my roti jala mould.
Do as I did, use a plastic mustard bottle easily available and inexpensive!! I am going to google for the mould today,see If it's sold here.
Thanks for visiting!!

Roti Jala tastes best with Kari Ayam.Try them together.They have a mould to pour the batter but use any Ketchup bottle to make patterns.Enjoy:))
