Roti Mataba
โรตีมะตะบะ
Medium-Mild
Mataba is a Thai-Muslim stuffed flatbread — a flaky roti folded around a filling of spiced minced meat and egg, pan-fried until golden and served with a sweet cucumber relish.
Key Ingredients
- roti dough
- minced beef or chicken
- onion
- egg
- curry powder
Where to Try It
Thai-Muslim street stalls in Bangkok's Bang Rak, near mosques, and in southern Thailand.
Tips
- The vegetarian version with egg and onion only is just as satisfying as the meat version — a great option for non-meat eaters exploring Muslim Thai food.
