"A suggested salad and/or rice make good accompanyments to this Roti. I haven't made it myself yet."

I was going to post this recipe myself; mine is identical and I've made it many times. It's always a hit. A superb taste of the Caribbean and REALLY easy to make. Next time I'll take a picture and post: you end up with kind of thick stew that you roll up in a tortilla. (Note steps 7 and 8 and plan ahead: for best results, make earlier and reheat before serving -- this yields a thicker "stew.") In addition to the salsa or chutney (I've used both) I also make Coconut Rice to go with. Delicious!
