And the first recipe under SG 50 featured posts will be my favorite curry puff!
Making the pastry puff is a very tedious process. Being a lazy cook, I am always finding the easy way out, and I realised that ready-made prata is a great substitute for flaky pastry. It's my first time using ready-made prata to substitute puff pastry and the results is stunning!
There is still the flaky effect, yet not oily because the prata is baked, and not fried. Prata complement the curry very nicely. No wonder some things has to come together.. just like you tiao with soya milk
