Prata Anyone?
Tried my hand at making roti prata today. Verdict? It tasted kind of healthy... hahaha.. I guess it was just not oily enough. It was surprisingly easy to stretch the dough to a very thin sheet, needless to say, it was the more oil the better. But I somehow thought the final prata looked a little too smooth. It didn't have the usual "wrinkles" or folds as what we normally see in the ones from prata shop.For anyone who's interested, the recipe can be found here. The recipe doesn't state the quantity and proportions of the ingredients, so everything is "agak agak" one. Of course if you are in Singapore, it isn't necessary to go through such length to make your own prata :)

hello um, actually the correct spelling of the word is "agak agak".
"agar agar" refers to jelly, as in the the type we consume.
both are malay words.
yeah i know, it's hard to imagine how to spell it especially when everyone goes on with "agaration" and all. :)
it must be tough being someplace else and missing home food. dang, i can't imagine that.
Hey CM, thanks for pointing out the spelling. Made the correction :)
It's not too bad out here, just have to take a bit more effort to prepare some food stuff which we took for granted back home... like wanton skin. Otherwise there is an excellent range of premixes in Singapore.
