As a Singaporean, we usually just use the same side of the chopsticks to grab and cook the raw food, then "sanitise" it by dipping it into the hot soup, before using the same pair to eat. It was hilarious seeing you use the other side of your chopsticks! The prata place was really value for money too (:

That's works uncooked flavor in the soup. Burger and chicken factories create Ecoli in larger numbers smaller numbers in fresh local food its less likely. How many years has society's been butchering and serving food In hawker type or open markets.

Prata always comes with a dipping curry. It’s usually just the gravy, with no meat or veggies. It looks like Mike often orders curries at extra cost, which is why you see chunks of meat - it’s a dish on its own.

Paratha is basically roti which is cooked in oil. So that has a more flaky texture, compared to the chewy like texture for roti. People eat paratha bcz of the flaky texture, but yeah roti and paratha are very same.

Prata is derived from paratha from India. Their difference, paratha is dry baked while our prata is fried over oil

@@dingaroo2003 nah uh paratha is generally done with oil. Its not fried its just used in a small quantity to just make it crunchy. Its literally the same in India. Its just Indian cuisine.
