West Indian Fry Bread (Roti)




Source of Recipe


by Millie, from West Indian Recipes A-Z


Recipe Introduction


Author's Note: My suggestion, is divide the dough into 12-14 balls or more, then roll these out to the size of an 8 inch plate. if the first ball is too thick or too thin at 8 inches then make smaller or larger balls, keeping them covered with a towel til you get to them.

List of Ingredients




3 cups flour
1 tablespoon oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 cup boiled water
deep frying pan butter

Recipe



Put all the ingredients in a mixing bowl and mix until soft like rubber.

Knead the dough at least 5-10 times and add flour if sticky or water if hard.

Take a roller and roll till it looks like a pizza dough, not very thick nor very thin, just in the middle.

Put frying pan on high heat and fry the roti.

Wait 5 seconds then turn it, then put butter on the fried side, then after 10 seconds turn it over again and put butter on the other side and wait at least 10 seconds and turn it back and make sure the roti is brown not black.
