Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 1/2 cups (1 1/4 lb. / 580 g) all purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
3/4 cup ghee, room temperature
1 large egg, beaten
3/4 cup whole milk
1/2 cup water

Steps:

  • Combine flour, salt, sugar and 1/4 cup of the ghee in the bowl of a stand mixer. Run on low speed with a dough hook until mixture clumps.
  • Add egg, milk and water. Continue to mix until a smooth elastic dough is formed. Knead into a smooth, soft, elastic dough, about 8 to 10 minutes. The dough should be a bit sticky, but not wet.
  • Transfer the dough out and cut into eight equal pieces, about 4 oz. each (113 g). Form into smooth balls.
  • Coat each ball with one teaspoon of ghee, slathering them well. Arrange in a single layer on a plate, cover with a damn cloth and allow them to rest at room temperature for at least 6 hours. (The dough can be made a day ahead and kept in the refrigerator.)
  • If the dough was prepared the day ahead, let come to a warm room temperature. So if your kitchen is cold, place the dough inwarm area, or you can even microwave it for 10 secondintervals. Warm dough is more elastic and easier to workwith.
  • Clean a 2-inch × 2-inch surface, and coat it with a 12-inch circle (30 cm) of ghee (about 2 tablespoons). Coat hands liberally with ghee.
  • Stretch the dough into a sheet; put 1 teaspoon of ghee in center of the buttered work area.
  • Arrange one dough ball in the center. Press with your buttered palm to flatten dough into a 6-inch disc, less than 1/4 inch thick, slightly thinner around edges.
  • Pull and stretch it from the center outwards. Make sure most of dough is paper thin by moving around dough perimeter with your fingertips and thumbs, lifting thicker edges, pulling outwards to thin, and gently pressing against table to adhere.
  • Systematically, slowly, work your way around theperimeter of dough circle, pulling outwards to thin thedough. For the first few rounds, pull 3 to 4 inches (about8 to 10 cm) each time, making it thinner and thinner. As itgets thinner, it will be obvious where the thicker parts ofthe dough are. Focus on those areas. Keep going until youachieve a paper thin sheet. It should reach about 2 feet in diameter. Use the tips of your fingers to smooth the thicker part paper thin.
  • Using two hands, fold top quarter of dough over itself, almost reaching middle of sheet. Fold top edge over again to meet the top edge. Then repeat with other sides to create a square multi-layered square of dough about 6 to 8 inches (about 16 to 20 cm). Each time you fold, try to capture some air in-between layers.
  • Heat a griddle or large saute pan over low heat.
  • Firmly flatten and spread one disc of dough until it is 7 inches to 8 inches in diameter or (18 to 20 cm). The dough will be elastic, and may pull back a little.
  • Drizzle the griddle with a little ghee. Add one bread to the pan, and cook slowly, turning once, 3 to 4 minutes per side, rotating occasionally to ensure even browning. Cook until each side is deep golden brown.
  • Transfer the breads to a work surface, and then use a clapping motion (careful it will be hot), slapping the bread together between your hands to separate the layers.
  • Repeat with remaining roti, cooking as many as will fit in the pan at one time. Serve immediately with curry sauce or sugar.

ROTI CANAI (MALAYSIAN STYLE)



Roti Canai (Malaysian Style) image

Malaysian fried bread, crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside; usually served with teh tarik and dhal (curry). After visiting Malaysia in 2003, I have had a tough time finding anything close to those foods here in Nebraska. I also hate converting g/mg to tsp/TBS, so I'm posting this on 'Zaar mostly for my own benefit to try later. I got this off of the Seberang Flour Mill site (Malaysia) http://www.seberangflour.com.my All yields and prep time are guesses.

  • Leave the dough for ten minutes. Fry on both sides over medium heat until golden brown.

MALAYSIAN FLATBREAD (ROTI CANAI) WITH CURRIED LENTIL DIP



Malaysian Flatbread (Roti Canai) with Curried Lentil Dip image

With a crispy, crunchy exterior and a stretchy, chewy interior, these Malaysian flatbread (roti canai) are easier to make than they look. Served alongside a delicious curried lentil dip, this taste combination is ridiculously good!

Provided by Chef John

Time 10h15m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 24

4 cups bread flour
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 large egg, beaten
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 ¼ cups water
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
½ cup diced yellow onion
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt, or more to taste
2 tablespoons curry powder
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
¼ cup tomato paste
3 cups cold water
1 (14 ounce) can full-fat coconut milk
1 cup dried red lentils
¼ cup unsalted butter, melted, or more as needed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon finely chopped serrano pepper

Steps:

  • Combine bread flour, sugar, kosher salt, egg, melted butter, and water for roti canai in a mixing bowl. Mix with your hands until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a work surface and knead until a smooth, elastic dough forms, about 7 minutes.
  • Divide dough into 8 equal pieces and form each one into a ball. Coat each ball with vegetable oil, transfer to a plate, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 8 hours, to overnight.
  • Melt butter for dip in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion, ginger, garlic, kosher salt, curry powder, paprika, cumin, black pepper, and cayenne pepper; stir together and saute until onion has softened and spices are fragrant, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in tomato paste and cook until it starts to toast and caramelize on the bottom of the pan, about 3 minutes.
  • Stir in cold water and coconut milk. Add lentils; stir and bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 40 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Reduce heat to low and keep warm while you prepare the roti canai.
  • Place 1/4 cup melted butter in a bowl. Transfer rested dough balls onto a lightly oiled work surface. Flatten each ball slightly and rub a little melted butter on top. Cover dough with plastic wrap and let it warm up slightly, about 10 minutes.
  • Press on top of the plastic wrap to flatten warmed dough. Remove plastic wrap and add a bit more butter. Stretch each piece from the center out to get it as thin as possible (until almost see-through), adding more butter as needed. Don't worry if there are a few small tears.
  • Sprinkle on more melted butter, then pull two sides in towards the center until touching and overlapping slightly. Pull the other two edges in the same way to form a square. Cover with plastic wrap and flatten roti canai one more time.
  • Add some melted butter to a skillet set over medium or medium-low heat. Add roti canai and cook until browned, flaky, and crispy on the outside and fully cooked through on the inside, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
  • Remove from the skillet and smush it with your hands to fluff it up and separate the layers of dough. Repeat to cook remaining roti canai.
  • Sprinkle the curried red lentil dip with cilantro and sliced serrano peppers and serve alongside the roti canai.
