The heat wave continues here on the West Coast of Canada. It was 90°F inside the store yesterday. That's hot by any standards. I didn't have anything planned for dinner and I just didn't feel like shopping for groceries on the way home so I decided to make do with what I had on hand. We hadn't had roti in a long time, and I had everything I needed to make it including leftover flour tortillas from the day before. Potato Roti is a favourite. We use to eat Potato roti often when we lived in Toronto. There were a lot of West Indian restaurants.Home Cookin Chapter: Recipes From Thibeault's Table

ReplyDeleteI always want something easy to fix when the temperature is high.
I love Indian cuisine! This looks tasty and easy. You are right....on a hot day, whatever is on hand is always the way to go!
ReplyDeleteI've now been making this dish for years, so I definitely owe you a big thank-you for this recipe. I also add chicken and chickpeas, but I still pull up this recipe every time I decide to make curry. Thanks again!
