  1. MMMMINCE

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the mince and work quickly to break it up as it starts to cook. Add the sliced onion, and fry until the mince has browned, and the onions are soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the curry paste and fry until fragrant 1-2 minutes. Remove from the heat and mix through the chutney.

  2. CORIANDER CREME

    While the mince and the onion are frying, combine the picked coriander, the lemon juice, and the crème fraîche in a mixing bowl. Loosen with a splash of water.

  3. READY THE Rotis

    Spread the Rotis out on a plate in a single layer and heat up in the microwave, 30-60 seconds. Alternatively, place a clean pan over medium heat. When hot, toast each roti until warmed through, 30-60 seconds per side.

  4. MOUTHWATERING MALAY MEAL

    Top each roti with malay mince, the Cucumber half-moons, the rinsed leaves and the nuts. Drizzle over the crème. Enjoy, Chef!
