My husband grew up in Malaysia and is always looking at yt videos on how to make roti canai. He would be so happy to have this for dinner. Thank you for the recipe
I watched as a kid while my mom made this roti in the kitchen and I was so amazed. After so many years watching your technique gave the same nostalgia. As for the dal I recommend trying a different dal each time such as khatti dal, meethi dal, khadi dal, maash ki dal, palak dal refer to hyderabadi mom in dubai youtube channel. Marion's personality keeps the videos entertaining to watch till the end. I've learned so many recipes from this channel especially starting off with understanding the flavor combinations.
Watching you combining the Ghee with the flour brought back a memory of Mama - I gave her a ring guard with 8 sapphires and 8 diamonds for her 50th Birthday - how she received it is another story. The first time I saw her after she got the ring, she was deep into a meatloaf...rings and all.
Its so heart warming to see Marion make this basic Indian dish so amazing. Thank you Marion. just a tip if you wanna make the Roti extra special apply a bit of Ghee or Butter and then smoosh the Roti. It will be extra special. You can use whole wheat flour and make it for kids. Very healthy with the Ghee. You can buy pure Ghee from any Indian grocer around you, the aroma and taste would be divine. If you want to boil the dal quicker, just pressure cook it for 3 - 4 whistles and then using a spoon mash the dal. Add it to the Tomato sauce Marion made. It will be amazing. (Nothing can beat the slow cooked dal flavour) however we all need some quick cuts. Add a bit of Hing / asafoetida it will help with the digestion of the dal and also impart an amazing flavour. Thank you Marion once again for making Indian food. So appreciate your love and support
Having grown up in Malaysia, roti canai is absolutely itched into my childhood memory. Thanks a million for this recipe. I have tried to create this from different recipes, but yours looks brilliant! Will definitely give this a try 👍🏻👍🏻
I love your channel and I usually love your recipes, but I now completely understand how the Italians feel watching your fusion pasta dishes. 🤦🏾♀️ Roti is my favourite food.... So it was quite interesting watching your interpretation of this. With lots of love from Trinidad and Tobago
In Trinidad and Tobago we call the Roti “buss up shot” or paratha. And the part with the aromatics in the oil, we call it “chunkay” We have slight differences with the dhal and Roti.
Never seen that sort of bread before. I'm English but been to India loads. Their lacha paratha, flaky but different. Guess every country has it's own version. I just prefer tandoori roti or normal white bread. like a chilli and garlic nan too with a curry
I came to say the same thing! Nothing like a good Trinidadian Buss Up Shut with some curry. SO good and it's so comforting. That or doubles with salt fish.
thank u for this delicious food.malaysian food is awe as always..hihihi..thanks features many times malaysian like curry noodles and murtabak..i always watch ur channel in fb.and i try today ur recipe thai briyani.that awesome thnks marion🤗
If you can grow curry leaves, you'll never have to buy it again. My mom grows it. We have 3 pots that has been with us for 15 years! My grandmother cut a branch from her old plant and that's how we grew it. It needs to be watered once or twice a day (if it's really hot. Once in the morning and the evening) also never pick the small leaves. It takes a while for it to grow really big.
I used to have this with puli kuzhambu for breakfast in Malaysia. It was fascinating to watch it being made and absolutely delicious. But it's not a roti that seems to be widely known in India.
Not MALAYSIAN food at all! Chennai is in south India, hence Chennai roti, or better still, lachcha parantha as it is more appropriately known is truely part of Indian cuisine .
Malay version of paratha, locally called roti canai (canai means to roll thinly) usually made with margarine and condensed milk compare to the original paratha recipe. You can fold in chopped onions, canned sardines or crack some eggs, just to have a little bit of twists to the recipe. And oh…an extra of sweet sambal to the dhaal to give a bit of a kick.
@@gp2779 Now that’s something for me to wonder. Maybe I was assuming that Marion’s recipe is perhaps based on Mamak’s roti canai because there’s tonne of ghee being used, considering that ghee is not that cheap hahaha…I personally find that the Mamak roti canai version is a bit different, but still I enjoy both. 😁
Been waiting for this one. Breakfast of champions. Red lentils can be used to eliminate the soak. 15-30 minute cook depending on how mushy you like it.
Clap it! In most of the roti videos I've seen, they clap it from the sides with their bare hands. The clap may be because it's too hot to handle...but it breaks up the layers really well. Thanks for both recipes!
Love your channel and can't wait to make this roti. You really have a special gift and you are a natural in front of the camera. Love your mum's energy too 😊
Health wise, definitely ghee over veggie oils though! Looks like I can have some authentic roti away from my home after all! 😄 Thank you! Next, I wonder if I can make a fermented sourdough roti to make it truly healthy! ☺️
It's so interesting how different cultures prepare similar foods with different techniques. I'm from Trinidad and we have a version of this, but the roti is called "buss-up or paratha" but layered with butter then rolled into a cone shape and the dhal is prepared similar also. Same dish, different name and taste!
We have cone shaped roti canai too, it's tall tho, like VERY tall, called roti tisu. Eat with condensed milk. The one with butter inside called roti planta in my country, served with dhal, sambal, mutton/beef curry combo.😁
I have never used ghee for anything, but I’ve been looking for something to make with it! I may just have to try this one too! At this point, my cooking at home is nothing but Marion’s recipes 😂😂
You'll be amazed how delicious it's if you just cook chopped tomatoes 🍅 with gee, you don't need to add anything else just salt, and enjoy it with bread😋
Thanks! Marion for sharing a great receipe. It's such a joy watching you cooking and your ever charming laugh, so relaxing.🤣I am drooling😋 looking at your perfectly cooked dhal and crispy roti canai. One of my fav, will definitely made this weekend. ❤️❤️
Wow that is the best Dahl I have ever tasted - I lived in India for 4 years but I did not like Dahl but yours is the best one I have ever tasted but I will make the roti as I love anything with dough plus your butter chicken is the best❤
Hi. Malaysian here 👋🏻 Btw that Roti Canai looks so good! Had never done it myself as it’s always available here 24/7 at Mamak 😄 Maybe one day i will try it make it mysef. Thanks for the video & recipe tho 💗
Looks good Marion! I'm quite surprised at how many commenters get so protective and angry about 'their way' of making certain foods, like the way the roti 'nééds to be folded' 🤭 I think it looks good and catches the essence of a great roti!
Yet you’d likely do that if it was Caucasian food. There’s nothing wrong with minorities being able to have a voice to state what’s what. Maybe your ego is a bit fragile if you take it personally.
@@rachkate76 oh no not at all! Its fun seeing others try my cultural foods. The way you had to defend your statement screams more fragile to me. People get so easily offended about the little fun things like food, why not celebrate, educate and be civil?
@@emmasofie8718 the Indians here literally ARE educating yet YOU interpreted that as complaining. Maybe try reading your comments again and see if they don’t make you look unhinged. 🙄
In Sri Lanka, we cook our dhal in coconut milk , turmeric and the rest of it, tempering it with curry leaves, dry chilli and mustard seeds. Love your roti which we know as paratha. The clapping of the roti parerga is done after it is cooked, mostly in batches stacked on top of one another.
OMG! This is a famous Trinidad and Tobago Roti called paratha (the locals call it buss-up-shot). Marion, your Roti looks just like the ones from Trinidad 💯. Well done 😍👌♥️
Hi Marion…..I love roti so much!!! A friend of mine makes a killer daal and even serves each bowl with a boiled egg in the middle. She said all regions have their own version of daal. Perfect meal daal and roti. 😋🇨🇦
I am vegetarian but I have seen Daals with eggs in YT recipes. I do believe it's too much protein though. Cause daal itself is heavy protein so along with that adding another protein is not good unless you are focusing on building big muscles. With daal you need to pair it with rice/roti and have a cool raita so the protein doesn't upset your stomach ^^
Hmmm roti prata with chicken curry or sardine curry . Yummy 😋😋😋😋😋. Reminds me of my mum. We had a stall and she sell roti prata, satay, laksa, roti john, mee Hong Kong, mee soto and many more. We sell for solid 20yrs. Now she retired.
absolutely incredible ...your videos create massive hunger - how to satisfy in Alberta where Roti Canai, Satay, Nasi Lemak, etc does not exist ... must find some peace as I confront the excellence of your work Marion !!!
Ughh! Its like I can smell the flavours while watching. Maybe that's something technology will introduce in the future? Haha. Fantastic channel, Marion, glad I found you!
1 tip if you want to elevate it to the next level. But first some thing interesting. Though roti "Canai" is Malaysian it gets its name from the Indian city of Chennai, formerly madras. Something i heard from a Tamilian-Malaysian cook when i was in KL. Tip. In the first layering where you palm it into a real thin layer. Add/spread any sort of herb or spice over the thinly spread out dough. Dried mint or cheese, garlic, chilli powder, kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves), coriander, parsley, spring Onions, anything thats finely chopped or powdered. Or a mix of a 1 or 2 ingredients, do not go overboard. Then roll it up. I personally add sugar, butter and once cooked i dip it in condensed milk or Nutella. Pair it with some fresh fruits if you wish. Crispy, soft, chewy, buttery and sweet. Yum! Think of it like a sweet chocolaty croissant. By the time you cook it will be flaky and gar-licky/cheesy/spicy and yummy... depending on you add. Here in North India we call this a laccha paratha, laccha means layered.
Did you know that we in South Africa have the largest population of Indian folk outside of India in the entire world and authentic Indian food is available all over. So so so good.
Any other Indians watching this and are dying to tell Marion that it is not chana daal but toor daal/arhar daal (pigeon pea)? 🤓 But anyway, I love this channel and missing Mama Noi all over again these days! Also, am guessing roti 'canai' comes from Chennai since the roti is styled after the parotta from Tamil Nadu. Experts will enlighten me of course...
I think Marion used Chana dal, a lot of Indians use Chana dal. My family uses Toor dal, they look almost the same - so I get why you might have been confused.
@@balusmbox Hey Balu, I agree that to an unsuspecting eye they both might look the same and the nomenclature also gets confused all the time. But am pretty sure what I am seeing is toor daal (pigeon pea). I cook with both and the size is mostly how you tell the difference. Also if you notice, after getting soaked chana daal puffs up quite a lot unlike this one.
Did I heard "gheeee"?!?!!!! Indian food without ghee is imperfect😝😝 my, my, my gudness, your roti is soooo rich🤩🤩🤩 how I wish they have it done with ghee over here but they are using some cheap margarine to do it😬😬😬 your dhal goes well with chapatis too😋😋😋😋
My dear..We Malaysians love Roti Canai, for breakfast..not forgetting our "teh tarik" (tea) You are Awesome!! By the way...How i wish if your background music was a "bhangra" !! Fantastic..lots of love from me 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💚💚💚💚💚💚
Lovely recipe!! So yumm.. Although I think you've (correctly) used toor dal or arhar dal that we commonly use in india for preparing Dals. It looks very similar to chana dal or split chickpeas, but it's not the same. Lovely recipe Marion. I'm a huge fan of yours and your channel ❤️❤️
Love the recipe, but.... that's not Chana dal. That's toor dal or pigeon peas. There's a big difference in flavor and final product. Too dal/ pigeon peas almost dissolve into a gummy paste when cooked but chana dal usually retains shape. Plus, chana dal is slightly bigger than toor dal. Easy way to differentiate between the two, toor dal grain is more flatter while chana dal is more rounder(fatter/ thicker). Either ways, love the recipes and the dal can be made with chana or toor dal, but end product will look different and taste different to someone who's had these before. Chana dal also takes slightly longer than toor to cook(in my experience)
@@anupriyar55 I know that, but the name/type of the lentil does not change coz it's "her" recipe. Imagine using beef and calling it chicken in the recipe.
Yes! Didn't know it was just in Kerala. So delicious!! Super easy to find in most indian stores in the west, and one of the best types of 'bread' there is!
It’s actually originated from India called Parotta but once the we Tamils / Malayalees forefathers brought it to Malaysia 🇲🇾 now it became Roti Canai ( I am originally from Malaysia ) . Malaysian cuisine are mostly borrowed from Indian, Thai & Chinese cuisine. But the younger generations don’t know the history and they claim it’s all belong to Malaysian cuisine.
@@carunamuthu7356 it IS malaysian. It IS a known that a lot of Malaysian food is heavily influenced by immigrants, which is adapted to the local taste. Peranakan food is a good example, fusion food from intermarriages of Chinese and Malays. Indian, Chinese immigrants adapted the food of their forefathers to what is available in their new home. Indian Muslims in Malaysia adapted to this by making nasi kandar for example. After decades long of the inception of our country, its sad to see people see themselves less Malaysian than they should be.
@@carunamuthu7356 Claimed? Lol Roti canai means ‘pan flat bread’ in our local Malay language. It did received influences from South Indian cuisine but this is uniquely a Malaysian dish made by Malaysian Indians. Stop claiming our Malaysian culture too.
@@carunamuthu7356 Imagine not being a Malaysian and have the audacity to call us ‘young generations claiming Indian culture’ lol YOU CLAIMED OUR MALAYSIAN CULTURE
I made this today. I used home canned tomatoes and Kitchen King. The canned tomatoes were kind of pre-broken down. I'd never cooked with ghee before and that was a revelation. I'll work that into my "fats to use" vocabulary. In the future I'd probably halve the ghee and the oil because that's a lot of fat and we're old. I've always been a little intimidated about making Scallion Pancakes, but after making this roti... I got this. Great recipe adventure!
Looks so yummy!!! Just the texture I'm looking for!!!! I would put butter and jelly on it! I would put taco meat and fixings on it! I would eat it with everything!
Great recipe Marion! Just a few tips Chana dal needs only 15 minutes of soaking, ,pressure cook it finally make the tempering tomatoes, onions etc together at the end, the aromas stay stronger. Also make sure the mustard seeds crackle in hot oil, before adding other ingredients.
Hace unos dias encontre este canal y me suscrivi me encantan tus recetas pero me gustaroa que pusieras subtitulos en español para saber los ingredientes un gran saludo
I am from india. In southern part of India we don't add egg to make roti. But now I am in USA I add egg when I make Roti's 🤪. I loved the recipe. Bring back so many memories. 🤣 Dal made with Ghee is so tasty & flavourful. One of my fav dishes. My mom used to make twice a week, once with Chana dal & once with split yellow mung beans. My mom adds cilantro/Coriander leaves after she finish the dish. 😋😍
The recipe was great and I was happy to see a recipe from my country. I must say you did a great job there with the dal. The only thik I would have recommended is to use ghee for the tadka (the seasoning of oil with the onion and spices). It would have been phenomenal then.
Your method is easier to follow. I don't need to do the special flapping motion most folks do when they make roti. I'll definitely be using ghee this time. 🥰
I always thought of you as an Australian though your mother is from Thailand. But my my Marion, I've been observing and I'd say the way you cook your spices is just like a true Malaysian. In your laksa and now in this dhal, yes Marion yes, cook the spices and chillies and all until you can see a layer of oil forming on the top. Malaysians don't just 'sautee' our onions and chillies, we cook them to their breaking point with lots of oil if possible. 😂
Really like her, she will try to cook other country cuisine as authentic as possible. And explain in detail, what she using and why she using other ingredients instead of this one. Also will inform this is her version if the ingredients is slightly different with original. Let everybody know she modified a bit to her own taste. Show she respect other country cuisine👏
Sooooo good….will try this new (to me) dish post haste. P S. anxiously await your new book….right around the corner. Thank you…you are always over the top. Don’t change your spots…you are innately talented and so charming, to boot!
This yellow lentil curry is the best thing I have cooked in my kitchen! I didn’t have curry leaves but it still tasted fine! My rotis were a little thick and not as flaky 😔
You always make cooking fun and easy!! I love your recipes, I have learn and made so many delicious dishes from you! Especially the Crack Cookies... hehe
This looks DELICIOUS ! Makes daal pretty often and we call this roti Paratha. You aced it. One thing though, did I miss Marion putting in the salt in Daal ?
Thanks for posting a vegetarian recipe - I really enjoy your presenting style and cooking tips/techniques and now I can actually follow your recipe exactly! Very excited to make both the roti and dal
My husband grew up in Malaysia and is always looking at yt videos on how to make roti canai. He would be so happy to have this for dinner. Thank you for the recipe

Watching you combining the Ghee with the flour brought back a memory of Mama -
I gave her a ring guard with 8 sapphires and 8 diamonds for her 50th Birthday - how she received it is another story.
The first time I saw her after she got the ring, she was deep into a meatloaf...rings and all.
Ha! Love this comment…

Roti canai, a must have breakfast in Malaysia.

We have slight differences with the dhal and Roti.
I was looking for this comment, thank you!!!! 🙏🏽😁❤

Because its a South indian thing . Canai and Chennai Rings a bell?
when in south india, just ask for parotta. Eat it with chicken kuzhambu 😍
It’s similar to Indian Paratha or Parotta

Vegetable oil is hydrogenated and GMO yuck.
It's so interesting how different cultures prepare similar foods with different techniques. I'm from Trinidad and we have a version of this, but the roti is called "buss-up or paratha" but layered with butter then rolled into a cone shape and the dhal is prepared similar also. Same dish, different name and taste!

1 tip if you want to elevate it to the next level. But first some thing interesting.
Though roti "Canai" is Malaysian it gets its name from the Indian city of Chennai, formerly madras. Something i heard from a Tamilian-Malaysian cook when i was in KL.
Tip.
In the first layering where you palm it into a real thin layer. Add/spread any sort of herb or spice over the thinly spread out dough.
Dried mint or cheese, garlic, chilli powder, kasuri methi (dried fenugreek leaves), coriander, parsley, spring Onions, anything thats finely chopped or powdered. Or a mix of a 1 or 2 ingredients, do not go overboard.
Then roll it up.
I personally add sugar, butter and once cooked i dip it in condensed milk or Nutella. Pair it with some fresh fruits if you wish.
Crispy, soft, chewy, buttery and sweet. Yum!
Think of it like a sweet chocolaty croissant.
By the time you cook it will be flaky and gar-licky/cheesy/spicy and yummy... depending on you add.
Here in North India we call this a laccha paratha, laccha means layered.
Did you know that we in South Africa have the largest population of Indian folk outside of India in the entire world and authentic Indian food is available all over. So so so good.

love when u pronounce it right ! Roti Canai (cha-nai). some westerners would say it like Kanai 🙄

@@balusmbox Hey Balu, I agree that to an unsuspecting eye they both might look the same and the nomenclature also gets confused all the time. But am pretty sure what I am seeing is toor daal (pigeon pea). I cook with both and the size is mostly how you tell the difference. Also if you notice, after getting soaked chana daal puffs up quite a lot unlike this one.
This Malaysia Indian style… “canai” is Malay language that mean flat-iron grill style cooking…
@@fiebakar3129 ah! good to know! :)
@@roysahiib: You are probably right. The way this dal puffed up after soaking is similar to tool dal and not chana dal
I stand corrected :D
Hello, that looks absolutely delicious
It looks yummy. I love roti canai very much, can eat at anytime!
WHY did I watch this when I was already hungry? I should know better than that by now. That looks so good.
Did I heard "gheeee"?!?!!!! Indian food without ghee is imperfect😝😝 my, my, my gudness, your roti is soooo rich🤩🤩🤩 how I wish they have it done with ghee over here but they are using some cheap margarine to do it😬😬😬 your dhal goes well with chapatis too😋😋😋😋
Don't get overexcited and overreact. 🤦🏻♂️
Hello 🙄Marion knows exactly what she says or is doing with ghee in this recipe👏♥️
My dear..We Malaysians love Roti Canai, for breakfast..not forgetting our "teh tarik" (tea) You are Awesome!!
By the way...How i wish if your background music was a "bhangra" !!
Fantastic..lots of love from me 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰💚💚💚💚💚💚
Bro masala tea is one of the best!!!!
Dough balls are joyful. You’re so right :)
10/10, Marion. I can't wait to make this. 🤤
Oh my! What an amazing work! Definitely brought back memories of KL for me❤️
Lovely recipe!! So yumm.. Although I think you've (correctly) used toor dal or arhar dal that we commonly use in india for preparing Dals. It looks very similar to chana dal or split chickpeas, but it's not the same. Lovely recipe Marion. I'm a huge fan of yours and your channel ❤️❤️
Love the recipe, but.... that's not Chana dal. That's toor dal or pigeon peas. There's a big difference in flavor and final product. Too dal/ pigeon peas almost dissolve into a gummy paste when cooked but chana dal usually retains shape. Plus, chana dal is slightly bigger than toor dal. Easy way to differentiate between the two, toor dal grain is more flatter while chana dal is more rounder(fatter/ thicker). Either ways, love the recipes and the dal can be made with chana or toor dal, but end product will look different and taste different to someone who's had these before. Chana dal also takes slightly longer than toor to cook(in my experience)
Thank you for this clarification very helpful.
U r absolutely right
She did say its 'her' version.
@@anupriyar55 I know that, but the name/type of the lentil does not change coz it's "her" recipe. Imagine using beef and calling it chicken in the recipe.
the dal if you will use tur daal it is easy to digest and if you will use CHANAA daal it is little bit heavy on your stomach...
Really, nice love the recipe.
That's a famous food in our country srilanka.
It's called parathas, ❤️
In Kerala we make another version of this roti, which is called porotta. 🥰 Any Malayalees? 😁
Yes! Didn't know it was just in Kerala. So delicious!! Super easy to find in most indian stores in the west, and one of the best types of 'bread' there is!
It’s actually originated from India called Parotta but once the we Tamils / Malayalees forefathers brought it to Malaysia 🇲🇾 now it became Roti Canai ( I am originally from Malaysia ) . Malaysian cuisine are mostly borrowed from Indian, Thai & Chinese cuisine. But the younger generations don’t know the history and they claim it’s all belong to Malaysian cuisine.
@@carunamuthu7356 it IS malaysian. It IS a known that a lot of Malaysian food is heavily influenced by immigrants, which is adapted to the local taste. Peranakan food is a good example, fusion food from intermarriages of Chinese and Malays. Indian, Chinese immigrants adapted the food of their forefathers to what is available in their new home. Indian Muslims in Malaysia adapted to this by making nasi kandar for example. After decades long of the inception of our country, its sad to see people see themselves less Malaysian than they should be.
@@carunamuthu7356 Claimed? Lol Roti canai means ‘pan flat bread’ in our local Malay language. It did received influences from South Indian cuisine but this is uniquely a Malaysian dish made by Malaysian Indians. Stop claiming our Malaysian culture too.
@@carunamuthu7356 Imagine not being a Malaysian and have the audacity to call us ‘young generations claiming Indian culture’ lol YOU CLAIMED OUR MALAYSIAN CULTURE
I made this today. I used home canned tomatoes and Kitchen King. The canned tomatoes were kind of pre-broken down. I'd never cooked with ghee before and that was a revelation. I'll work that into my "fats to use" vocabulary. In the future I'd probably halve the ghee and the oil because that's a lot of fat and we're old. I've always been a little intimidated about making Scallion Pancakes, but after making this roti... I got this. Great recipe adventure!
Looks so yummy!!! Just the texture I'm looking for!!!! I would put butter and jelly on it! I would put taco meat and fixings on it! I would eat it with everything!
You’re the best thanks for the recipe 😭
Great recipe Marion! Just a few tips Chana dal needs only 15 minutes of soaking, ,pressure cook it finally make the tempering tomatoes, onions etc together at the end, the aromas stay stronger. Also make sure the mustard seeds crackle in hot oil, before adding other ingredients.
In Jamaica we call the smooshing of the roti-
Bus' up shot!!
Great recipe Marion, as usual!
Amazing. Very good. It's diffrent.
Hace unos dias encontre este canal y me suscrivi me encantan tus recetas pero me gustaroa que pusieras subtitulos en español para saber los ingredientes un gran saludo
I am from india. In southern part of India we don't add egg to make roti. But now I am in USA I add egg when I make Roti's 🤪. I loved the recipe. Bring back so many memories. 🤣
Dal made with Ghee is so tasty & flavourful. One of my fav dishes. My mom used to make twice a week, once with Chana dal & once with split yellow mung beans. My mom adds cilantro/Coriander leaves after she finish the dish. 😋😍
The recipe was great and I was happy to see a recipe from my country.
I must say you did a great job there with the dal. The only thik I would have recommended is to use ghee for the tadka (the seasoning of oil with the onion and spices). It would have been phenomenal then.
Your method is easier to follow. I don't need to do the special flapping motion most folks do when they make roti. I'll definitely be using ghee this time. 🥰
I admirał your cooking and you inspired me to make my own channel yeah! Thank you
Sending love all the way from Malaysia to you Marion 😁😁😁😁🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷🇱🇷 Thank you for staying authentic to the original recipe👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤔🤔
This is such an amazing video! Such a huge fan of yours. Thanks for being an inspiration!
Is that our roti canai? Wow, thank you marion😆
I am so happy you finally made paratha
In Singapore we call it roti prata n dhal curry. Good job. Looks great 👍
great video. I'd also recommend the video that Sheldo's Kitchen did on roti canai as well, maximum flake factor.
I always thought of you as an Australian though your mother is from Thailand. But my my Marion, I've been observing and I'd say the way you cook your spices is just like a true Malaysian. In your laksa and now in this dhal, yes Marion yes, cook the spices and chillies and all until you can see a layer of oil forming on the top. Malaysians don't just 'sautee' our onions and chillies, we cook them to their breaking point with lots of oil if possible. 😂
This looks so good.
Really like her, she will try to cook other country cuisine as authentic as possible. And explain in detail, what she using and why she using other ingredients instead of this one. Also will inform this is her version if the ingredients is slightly different with original. Let everybody know she modified a bit to her own taste. Show she respect other country cuisine👏
..looks yummy..l love the process... thank you
Sooooo good….will try this new (to me) dish post haste. P S. anxiously await your new book….right around the corner. Thank you…you are always over the top. Don’t change your spots…you are innately talented and so charming, to boot!
Wow so nice to see you cooking Indian daal and roti
Finally add on the cooked mutton, this dhal curry can become mutton dalcha curry. Thank you. Very good try.
Malaysia and Singapore. Two of my favorite 3 S.E.Asian countries. #3? Indonesia, which is actually #1.
This yellow lentil curry is the best thing I have cooked in my kitchen! I didn’t have curry leaves but it still tasted fine!
My rotis were a little thick and not as flaky 😔
It's okayyy
They're really easy to grow in the backyard.
We have a frikkin Tree with a lot of tini saplings around it 🥰
*tiny
Damnn, I need to upgrade my dhal and roti making skills.😅
Thanks Marion for another great vid.
Dal & Roti .... it's your version is amazing.
You always make cooking fun and easy!! I love your recipes, I have learn and made so many delicious dishes from you! Especially the Crack Cookies... hehe
I think the southern state of Kerala in India makes the best 'parotta', a fluffier version of roti canai ..
I love your recipe and all the performance are so perfect full
This looks DELICIOUS ! Makes daal pretty often and we call this roti Paratha. You aced it. One thing though, did I miss Marion putting in the salt in Daal ?
Thanks for posting a vegetarian recipe - I really enjoy your presenting style and cooking tips/techniques and now I can actually follow your recipe exactly! Very excited to make both the roti and dal
The roti has egg though, so it is not vegetarian, you can make it without the egg to make it a pure veg dish.
@Kelinci Jahat really? I don’t think so
@Kelinci Jahat I don’t think so dear 😊
This isn't vegetarian...eggs aren't vegetables. Eggs come from agritortured hens.
Butter comes from dairy which is for baby cows and you are not a baby cow. Use vegan butter and vegan egg
Well firstly such a big fan of your channel! Love the fact that you have tried out some Indian dal :) Will try out the roti soon!
🤤🤤🤤
Really enjoying your content on indian dishes 👌
Ps: I loveee all of your kitchen utensils, bowls, pots, etc... they're so unique😍
