Roti jala

Roti jala is a popular Malaysian snack, a savory crepe consisting of flour, eggs, milk, and turmeric powder. Literally translated, roti jala means net bread, referring to its intricate net design inspired by the nets of Malaysian fishermen. The snack is commonly served warm alongside curries (especially potato and chicken curry), and it is recommended to pair it with a cup of tea. Traditionally, it is prepared for numerous Malaysian festivities and celebrations such as weddings and birthdays. Because roti jala is quite small, it is often served in sets of three or four pieces when accompanying curries, but it can also be consumed on its own throughout the year in numerous Malaysian eateries.
