Roti jala, Malaysia's iconic lace-patterned bread, is made by drizzling a thin batter over a hot pan in circular motions to form a web pattern. Folded into quarters and stacked, it is often shared with a spicy curry as a late-night snack.
Whisk the flour, eggs, coconut milk, water, salt and turmeric together until you have a smooth, pourable batter.
Cover and rest the batter for 10 minutes so the flour fully absorbs the liquid and the flow evens out.
Pour the batter through a perforated cup over the hot greased pan in circular motions to create the web pattern, cooking several sheets over 10 minutes.
Fold each lace sheet into quarters and stack them, serving warm alongside a curry.
If you do not pour the batter in a thin, steady stream from a perforated cup or bottle, the lace pattern will not form, and a thick stream makes the bread dense and tough. Allergens: contains wheat (gluten), egg.
Leave out the turmeric and the bread turns a paler yellow with no change in flavour; using regular milk instead of coconut milk gives a lighter texture.
