i buy that spring home brand or chinatown.

if hardworking, what i do is melt some margarine, add an egg and then cook till egg white turns white but yolk is still runny. eat together with the lightly fried roti prata.

For purist, that's not prata but just ready-to-cook flour mix. The texture is not the same as those twisted and stretched dough

of course can't beat the REAL thing...but if no time, just have to make do lah.

Sometimes may add banana, taste good but not roti prata anymore.

i love a good egg prata with sugar. nasi bryani with fried chicken.

You are totally opposite of me. I only take kosong prata (no egg, no onion, no sugar pls) with good curry and no fish curry please.

For Bryani - I know like with mutton.

Total opposite 😉
No onions and curry.

No beef and mutton either.

VitoRelax:
Anyone agree with me if I say the prata at the famous Thevagi in Jalan Kayu has drop in quality ?

I agree. It's no longer the mecca for prata. Used to go to Jln Kayu for my quick fix at night.

But I prefer Cafeela next door.

Anyway, that stretch is no longer as laid back as in the 90s, after they built up Buangkok, Fernvale and spruced up Seletar Airbase area.

My fav is still Prata Wala (aircon Indian restaurant inside many shopping malls).


Everything is perfect. 100% Authentic. Tastes exactly like the real thing in India. No wonder so many Indian new immigrants patronise this place. If you see more local Chinese (like Casuarina), it probably means it's not 100% authentic. But it tastes good to many because it's been modified to suit local taste.

The complimentary prata curry is a type of Assam curry. I can drink up the whole cup cos it's so tasty.

Prata is panfried to perfection. Golden brown crispy buttery...almost like eating Indian croissant. Sometimes I order cheese prata or egg prata.

Top-notched North Indian spread, especially all the mashy dips. There's one cheese chicken tikka side dish that we always order. Really yummy. Other than that, their masala, tikka, tandoori are authentic.

Nasi Briyani (mutton or chicken) - simply sedap.

Only thing is teh tarik is too sweet. Used too little tea leaves to tarik...
I love Prata wala too! Last ate it during Christmas..

The prata is not as buttery nor crispy. It’s floury. The prata curry isn’t tasty at all - no punch. Their Chicken tikka and tandoori is not juicy nor flavourful. No mint gravy to dip with my garlic naan. No yogurt also. Garlic naan has too much minced garlic that look like white sesame. Dunno how to describe the naan. Just weird.

Mee Goreng isn’t great either.

Thumbs down.
