A popular teatime entrée, roti jala literally means “net bread”, named for its web-like appearance. This lacy pancake is made from a creamy batter of plain flour, eggs, butter, and coconut milk with a dash of turmeric for color.  A special metal or plastic funnel with small holes is used to achieve the lace effect.  The batter is then cooked briefly over a greased hot griddle and usually rolled or folded.
