    TAALICHA KOZUKKATTAI
    Another disappearing dish

    Ingredients:
    1 cup rice flour either steamed or dry fried.
    ½ cup coconut
    Salt to taste

    For tempering:
    2 small red onions slices
    2 dry red chillies cut into pieces
    1 sprig curry leaves
    ½ tsp mustard seeds
    ½ tsp urad dal
    2 tsp oil

    Method:
    Mix the flour, coconut and salt well.
    Add boiling water little by little and make
    It into a dough. When cool mix nicely.
    Now make the dough into obolong kozukkattati.
    ( some thing like sausages )

    In a broad vessel boil about 6 cups of water.
    When the water is boiling vigorously, slowly
    Add 3, 4 kozukkattais at a time.
    The water should be continuously boiling on a medium flame.
    The kozukkatis will start floating, once they are cooked.
    Remove them slowly with a profated spoon.
    Do the same to all the kozukkattis.
    When they are cool, cut them into ½ inch pieces.

    Now add the onions, red chillies, and curry leaves.
    When the onions are lightly brown, add in the cut kozukkattais.
    Stir fry nicely and remove. You have to eat it with the cut chillies
    For the ommph.

    You can call this stuffed roti canai.

    MURTABAK

    First the onion pickle:
    1 big red onion sliced finely
    Little sugar
    Little salt
    Little vinegar
    A little hot water
    A drop of red colour

    Mix well the above and keep overnight.

    Murtabak filling

    250 grms ground chicken or lamb
    2 tsp ghee
    1 onion finely chopped
    1 tsp fresh ginger finely chopped
    1 tbs meat curry powder
    1 tsp cilantro finely chopped
    1 tsp fresh mint finely chopped

    Method:
    In a wok add the ghee, add the ginger,onion,
    And meat curry powder. Stir fry for 2 minutes.
    Add in the ground meat, break up the meat so that
    There is no clumps , cook till well browned.
    Add the cilantro and mint, stir to mix well with meat.
    Remove and let it cool completely.

    To prepare the murtabak.:

    Take a portion of a prepared roti canai dough.
    Spread it into a paper-thin sheet.
    Take a big cup, break an egg into it.
    Add some chopped onions and chopped green chillies
    Into the cup. Add about 2 tbs of the meat filling into the cup.
    Add a pinch of salt and beat it well with a fork.
    Spoon the mixture evenly on the dough.
    Fold the four sides into a nice square.
    Carefully and quickly lift the murtabak using both hands on to
    A preheated and well greased griddle.
    Cook for 2 to 3 minutes till golden brown.
    Flip over the other side slowly, add a little ghee
    And brown the other side also.
    Remove and serve with the onion pickle and dal curry.

    ROTI CANAI

    3 cups all purpose flour
    1 tbs cooking oil
    1 tbs margarine
    Salt to taste
    1 to 1.5 cups of water
    Extra margarine

    Method:
    Mix the salt with the water.
    Add the liquid into the flour bit by bit and knead the flour.
    Add the cooking oil and the margarine.
    Knead to form a soft dough. Leave it covered for about 30 minutes.
    Divide the dough into 10 portion and mould into balls.
    Coat the balls with margarine so that they won’t stick to each other.
    Leave to rest for about 3 hours.
    Spread each ball on a smooth surface to form a very thin layer.
    Bring the sides to the centre, to form a long dough.
    Hold upwards and swirl it to form a disk.
    Flatten it with your palm, fry on a hot plate with a bit of oil.
    After it is cooked remove it to a plate. Crush the roti canai
    With both your hands to loosen the layers.
    Enjoy with dal.

    some notes kugan:

    1. I dont like the pickled onions served in KL restaurant and prefer the Penang variety.
    We slice the red onion and some red/green chilly, add salt and vinegar (liberally) and leave it to ferment.

    2. Roti Canai is nothing but parOtta from TN.

    3. Add some condensed milk when making the dough.

    4. After making the spiral disk, you need to rest it for at least 15 mins, before flattening it.
    Also leaving the dough overnight, brings better results.
    Never argue with a fool or he will drag you down to his level and beat you at it through sheer experience!
