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…
and this my friends, is called humble bragging😂😂

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.
I am surprised that you're fairly well versed with our Malaysian favorite foods Marion. Thank you.
Just pre-ordered your book. Can't wait. Love all your recipes
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
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. ❤️❤️
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 😊
Instant subscriber! Was so impressed at how easily you put together this absolutely gorgeous meal.
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
I was going to mention hing (asafoetida) myself, thanks for bringing it up :)
Great tips, thank you so much.
Agree with the hing (asafoetida), I make it at home with hing instead of garlic.
I know what I'm having for dinner tomorrow now :) Thanks Marion 👍
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 👍🏻👍🏻
absolute truth ... my Nyonya wife agrees !!!
Etched
This is incredible looks soo yummy ............. The hard work you invested in it is just priceless
Youdid it I waited and watched fir these two items! Thank you awesome technique !
Omg this is sooo delicious must try this at home xxx thank you Marion 😘😘😘
You are the only western person who exactly cooked like any authentic asian style. Perfectly executed and very well done. 👌
..looks yummy..l love the process... thank you
10/10, Marion. I can't wait to make this. 🤤
Oh my! What an amazing work! Definitely brought back memories of KL for me❤️
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!
Looks absolutely delicious ... The hard work you invested in it is really appreciating 👍 Very nice sharing
This looks so good.
Is there anything you can’t cook? This combination is one of my favourites and your version looks outstanding!
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.
I was looking for this comment, thank you!!!! 🙏🏽😁❤
I’ve heard people from India call it chonk.
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
It's so funny I'm seeing this comment, after commenting the same thing after watching lol. 🇹🇹
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.
I LOVE your pink cookware and pitcher bowl.
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.
Love this menu❤️👌👍🏼.. am Fiji islander in USA enjoyed it keep up the good work 💕🙌🏼
Just found her vid, I love how unlike many she has actually kept it authentic
You’re the best chef 👩🍳
Amazing. Very good. It's diffrent.
I love your recipe and all the performance are so perfect full
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.
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.
Looks amazing!
love to see that food has no boundaries . respect
Wohoo Le Creuset & Wusthof! Love your new kitchen stuffs 😍 … greetings from Malaysia 🇲🇾 great job & thanks Marion for featuring Roti Canai, yummeh 🤤
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!
In Singapore we called it Roti Prata instead of Roti Canai
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 Love the way you cook, so yummy 🤤
It looks yummy. I love roti canai very much, can eat at anytime!
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❤
Lovely. Roti Canai and Teh Tarik on the street in KL for breakfast.....yum!
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
You’re the best thanks for the recipe 😭
I admirał your cooking and you inspired me to make my own channel yeah! Thank you
Yum! 😋 I loveeee roti canai thank youuu ❤
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 😍👌♥️
Apparently Trinidad and Tobago is the only other country in the world (besides Mauritius where I'm from) where "Dhal Puri" is made. Is it?
These are all versions of Indian paratha
This is such an amazing video! Such a huge fan of yours. Thanks for being an inspiration!
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!
OMG! True food lover!
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 ^^
WHY did I watch this when I was already hungry? I should know better than that by now. That looks so good.
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.
Ooh that sounds good! Paneer paratha is my absolute favorite tho ☺️
@@kamalitarajagopalan2671 never had paneer paratha, but it sounds delicious!
Agreed. This is where too much ghee is non-preferable.
Malaysian* style you mean :)
@@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. 😁
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 !!!
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 💗
love when u pronounce it right ! Roti Canai (cha-nai). some westerners would say it like Kanai 🙄
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🤗
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 ❤️❤️
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! ☺️
omg sourdough roti.. i just started some starter today!
Vegetable oil is hydrogenated and GMO yuck.
Watching this at 9pm..and planning roti canai for my breakfast tomorrow lol
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.
Chana dal is with chickpeas! But this looked amazing!
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.
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 your gaslighting is real cute Karen.
I already explained myself I don’t need to do it again.
@@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. 🙄
@@emmasofie8718 lastly, nobody got angry as I already said your fragile ego continues to manipulatively interpret a correction as anger. 🤡
Really, nice love the recipe.
That's a famous food in our country srilanka.
It's called parathas, ❤️
Love roti chanai, love Malaysian food!! 🇮🇳❤️
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 .
Wow so nice to see you cooking Indian daal and roti
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😋
How about Biryani? It taste damn good too
daisuke910 actually I don't like Biryani 🙃
Dough balls are joyful. You’re so right :)
Hola Marion thank you for your the most delicious yummy recipe and thank you for your video 💛🌺🩸❤️🌹💐🌿💚🎈🌻🍀🥀🥰😍💕❣️💜🏮😘🧡🙏😴♥️🌼🎋💙🌸🌾🌟💓🙏😴♥️🌼🎋❣️🥀🏮🎈
Is that our roti canai? Wow, thank you marion😆
In Jamaica we call the smooshing of the roti-
Bus' up shot!!
Great recipe Marion, as usual!
In Singapore we call it roti prata n dhal curry. Good job. Looks great 👍
Amazing 😱
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!!!!
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!
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.
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!
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!
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 love roti!
Idk if this is authentic but it looks really good.
I am so happy you finally made paratha
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.
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
Roti canai, a must have breakfast in Malaysia.
it is called the Kerala Porota originating from a state called Kerala in India famous for its flack and crispy crust but soft and chewy texture enjoyed generally with traditional fish curry .
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.
Dal & Roti .... it's your version is amazing.
I really rate her recipes and her explanations. She gives loads of detail. I’ve cooked a few of her chicken recipes and they have turned out like restaurant quality. I always go to her now for a new and exciting recipe. I love her mum too, she a talented cook too and she’s so funny. Keep up the great work Marion. 💕
Decent! cheers.
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!
great video. I'd also recommend the video that Sheldo's Kitchen did on roti canai as well, maximum flake factor.
Guess what I had for dinner tonight? Yum, yum, YUM!!!
"I like it spicy", says Marion. You don't say ... 😉
Damnn, I need to upgrade my dhal and roti making skills.😅
Thanks Marion for another great vid.
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.
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 ?
Love your channel. I am learning to make bread so will add this to my list. Thanks so much! 🥰
🤤🤤🤤
Really enjoying your content on indian dishes 👌
Ps: I loveee all of your kitchen utensils, bowls, pots, etc... they're so unique😍
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. 😂
Thanks!
Yum 🤤
