    THAI ROTI BREAD

    Published: Aug 20, 2015 · Modified: Aug 9, 2019 by Kushi with 45 Comments . Article has 502 words. About 3 minutes to read this article.

    Thai Roti Bread is a easy to make and tasty bread recipe prepared using flour and milk. This bread can be served with any curry for lunch / dinner / breakfast. Thai food is my all time favorite and love to try different recipes from thai cuisine and I do it more frequently. I have served this bread with tofu bhurji and its delicious. Its really worth a try.

      Made this today using my bread maker and it turned out very well, I used Ghee instead of oil.

      Great recipe that I have already passed on to others, thanks very much.

      Can it be made ahead? Before frying?

        November 24, 2016 at 2:57 pm

        Yes, you can. If you plan to fry it in 3-4 hours then you can roll the breads, and stack them by placing a parchment paper between each and then cover completely using a dry and clean kitchen towel to prevent it from drying up. You can also freeze if you prefer. I think either way parchment paper is the key as it prevents the rolled flat breads from sticking to one another.

      This is a terrific, simple recipe. I have changed it ever so slightly by using about a third quantity of Gram flour and using gram flour to dust the surfaces when I'm rolling out the discs. My family love these.

      This was fantastic! I never knew how easy this was to make, I think I'll be having it with every meal now 😀 I've made slightly too much dough though, is there a good way to store it? Thanks for the great recipe!!

        Thank you so much. I am glad you liked it. Wrap it in plastic wrap and place it in refrigerator. Use it in a day or 2. Thaw for half an hour before rolling. However, it tastes best when its fresh 🙂

        Best eaten fresh. You can store in refrigerator for 1 or 2 days but make sure you preheat them before serving.

      Although there are only a few ingredients in these roti they are lovely and so easy to make. Great with Thai curry but I could eat these alone. Far nicer than shop bought ones. Thank you for a lovely easy recipe.

      Just to clarify, you increase the water to 1/2 cup AND add 1/2 cup coconut milk for a vegan version?

        you mean 1/4 cup right? Yes add 1/4 cup of milk and 1/4 cup of any nondairy milk of your choice or simply skip the milk and prepare the dough with 1/2 cup of water. I hope I am clear now 🙂

          Ok… I was going to use coconut milk in place of dairy milk, so 1/4 water and 1/4 cup coconut milk, or just 1/2 cup water.

            You can use 1/4 water and 1/4 coconut milk OR 1/2 cup water OR 1/2 cup milk too. Add flour in increments and knead to get smooth dough.
