It comes with a choice of chicken, sardine or beef filling. It is actually a hybrid of the regular roti canai but filled with more tasty ingredients.
Priced at RM6 per plate, the ingredients are egg, cheese, roti canai, ghee, curry leaves and a rich spoonful of hot curry.
The dish was created by co-owner of the popular restaurant, Nazir Hussein Mohd Jameel, 40, who has been experimenting with various combinations to create the dish.
“I had to try out several combinations of ingredients before settling on the final product. I am happy that it has been well received from our regulars, visitors to Penang and also tourists,” said Nazir to Penang Hyperlocal.
