Uniquely Singapore

Dinner this evening was PRATA! The Singaporean Indian dish. Chanced upon the well-known Singapore brand, SpringHome, in the chinese market and I just had to grab them. SpringHome roti prata is commonly found in NTUCs, and they are just the next best alternatives to the Jln Kayu's jewels. We used to buy them occasionally back home since it was extremely easy to prepare, without even a single drop of oil required.

If you are not aware by now that Roti Prata is unique only to Singapore, check out Wiki. It evolved from Pakistani and Indian Paratha, and the different flavours (cheese, tissue, paper, ice-cream, etc) are only available in our very own hometown!




















Crispy fragrant pratas with yummy curry. Nice! Who says you have to be a great cook to enjoy delicious home-cooked food?

I wish I can find ready-made Bak Chor Mee, Hokkien Mee, Fried Kway Teow and all the local delicacies here too...
