Guyanese roti

 

Lunchables

I truly love roti, especially with curry or for breakfast as a wrap with bacon eggs n cheese YUM!. I make it all the time but could never manage to get that authentic flaky layered texture we get from the Indian restaurants here in Jamaica.So most times we would buy it from the restaurant in bulk. Interestingly enough It never once occurred to me to search online for an authentic recipe. However when I decided to make curry chicken wraps for my Lunchables month I did just that. I googled how to make Guyanese roti and boy did I find a winner.

Dosa

Pancake Month!

pan·cake/ˈpanˌkāk/

Noun; A thin, flat cake of batter, usually fried and turned in a pan.

Until I started my research into pancakes, I had no idea what a Dosa was. In Jamaica, we are accustomed to having roti but not dosa. Most people refer to it as a south Indian-style crepe. It’s made from fermented rice, lentils, and fenugreek seeds. They come out very crispy with a nutty flavor.
