Coconut roti
Ingredients
- 240g (2 cups) cake flour, sieved salt, to taste
- 130g desiccated coconut
- 60ml (¼ cup) boiling water
- 15ml (1 tbsp) butter
Instructions
1
In a large bowl, mix the flour, salt and coconut with enough boiling water to make a soft, but not sticky, dough.
2
On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough for about 10 minutes. Divide into 12 pieces and flatten each piece slightly to form a small disc.
3
Place each disc between 2 pieces of wax paper and roll out to form discs about 2mm thick.
4
Heat a heavy-based frying pan to hot.
5
Peel the paper off each roti and fry until light brown, about 1 minute on each side. Remove and keep warm.
6
Serve with creamy prawns.
