A famous Malaysian delicacy known as roti canai. It's transformed to include several delicious, but optional fillings from bananas, butter, eggs, to other more exotic tastes. Roti canai is usually served with several Indian curries; dhall (lentils) or sambar (mixed vegetable). Some people also have it with fish or chicken.

The roti canai was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

The roti canai was a bit too chewy for my taste. I think I'll knead the dough less next time.

The roti canai was a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll roll it out thinner next time.

The roti canai turned out great. I had to make a few adjustments to the recipe, but it was still easy to follow. The kuah banjir was delicious and really made the dish.
