5 Interesting Versions of Prata You Should Try (And Where to Find Them)
Checked roti prata on your list? Good. Now extend your prata knowledge by conquering these twists on the popular Indian Muslim dish during your visit to Singapore!
Roti Tissue
Crispy instead of chewy, roti tissue also differs from its original counterpart in its form – it comes in a spherical cone instead of a flatbread. Its paper-thin nature makes it too delicate for soaking up curry, but you can complement it with sugar, kaya, or even ice cream!
Where to find it:
Al-Azhar Eating Restaurant
11 Cheong Chin Nam Road, Singapore 599736
Tel: 6466-5052

Roti Plaster
On first glance, one might mistake roti plaster for a typical prata with egg. Take a closer look, however, and you’ll notice that the sunny side up in roti plaster is not encased within the prata, but served on the dough itself.
Where to find it:
Casuarina Curry
136 Casuarina Road, Singapore 579526
Tel: 6455-9093
Open: 7am-midnight
Chicken Floss Prata
Fancy sinking your teeth into fluffy and light shreds of dried chicken? That’s chicken floss for you. While not commonly found outside Asia, chicken floss commonly features as a topping or filling in buns, pastries, and congee in this part of the world. We’re glad it’s made its way into prata and highly recommend that you try this one!
Where to find it:
The Roti Prata House
246M Upper Thomson Road, Singapore 574422
Tel: 6459-5260

Red Bean Prata
We love this innovative spin on the traditional Chinese red bean pancake. Crispier and thinner than standard prata, it oozes red bean paste with every bite. If you’re looking for a dessert of a different kind, this would be it.

1 Thong Soon Avenue, Singapore 787431
Tel: 6554-7321
Open: 7am-midnight
Prata Benedict
Why go for regular eggs benedict when you can have it with prata? Never have we imagined we’d see prata topped with poached egg, turkey ham and Indian hollandaise sauce. The best part is, it works. East meets west doesn’t get any better than this.
