Try this delicious Kori Rotti, a speciality of Mangalore cuisine and enjoy but please don't forget to comment, like, share and SUBSCRIBE to my channel Curry for the Soul on YouTube for more such delicious recipes.

Kori Rotti is a traditional and popular Mangalorean dish. Kori means Chicken and Rotti means crispy rice crepes which are now available in Mangalore stores in any big cities in India and abroad.

The Bunts in Mangalore serve this dish at weddings and parties

.

The Chicken Curry is a flavourful spicy curry with coconut milk which is poured on the crispy rice crepes and eaten after it soaks thoroughly.

I have simplified this recipe and cut down the scraping of the coconut to extract the thin

and thick milk and have used ready store-bought coconut milk which tastes equally good.

If you can't get the rottis, you can enjoy this delicacy with any dosa or rice.
