TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums British Virgin Islands Roti Recipe

We can never get enough chicken roti when we are visiting. My wife said she can’t find a recipe that looks right. Anyone have a good one to share?

I feel your pain. Mine is goat roti. I’ll post recipes asap

Watch this YouTube. Substitute chicken, conch, lobster, vegetables for goat. It rocks. Just like the old Roti Palace in RoadTown

Here is our recipe. Proper roti skins are hard to make. We buy them when we are in Grenada.
