Durban Curry Roti
🌯

Durban roti stalls often keep dough griddling fresh throughout the night, so a roti bought at 11pm can be exactly as hot and pliable as one bought at lunchtime.
A soft, pan-fried flatbread wrapped around a filling of curried mutton, chicken, beans or vegetables, eaten by hand as a takeaway meal — the roll-up cousin of bunny chow, using roti dough instead of hollowed-out bread.
Why it's made this way: Roti stalls sprang up alongside Durban's curry houses and bunny chow shops as another quick, portable way to eat the city's Indian-influenced curries on the go, especially favoured at busy taxi ranks and street corners.
