If you grew up consuming roti kukus (steamed buns) dipped in curry, then you definately would know the enjoyment of a heat, fluffy bread. However, most not too long ago, one roti kukus stall, Roti Wap Bangi in Selangor has been garnering viral consideration on social media and for cause— the freshly steamed buns are flooded with candy fillings like chocolate and cookies and cream!Â
The roti kukus bought at Roti Wap Bangi is so widespread that it sells out in lower than 3 hours, and you’ll assure you’ll be in for a protracted queue. Curious, I obtained into my automotive and made the hour-long drive to Bangi and boy, regardless of arriving 10 minutes proper after the stall had opened, there was already a queue of hungry clients.Â
What I attempted at Roti Wap Bangi
The fillings for the roti kukus are available 4 indulgent flavours: Kaya Butter, Crunchy Chocolate, Cookies Cream and their best-seller, Milk Chocolate. Unfortunately, the highly-desired Milk Chocolate filling was sold-out the very day earlier than my arrival. Alas! All the extra cause to drown my sorrows in sweets (and to return to attempt that out).
You can get an particular person roti kukus with the filling of your alternative for RM2.50 however I like to recommend the 3 piece set (RM6) as a result of this manner, you get to attempt extra flavours and it’s extra inexpensive. But if 3 items don’t do your candy tooth justice, double it with the 6 piece set at simply RM10.Â
It’s fascinating watching the workers dish out the roti kukus. The second a buyer locations an order, the workers uncovers the steamer basket and removes the fluffy roti kukus earlier than putting it right into a plastic container. Each roti kukus is then flooded with a beneficiant quantity of filling.
When I picked up every particular person bun, I used to be stunned at how gentle it was. The buns have been heat to the touch and the wells within the centre of every bun contained a beneficiant quantity of oozy, flowy filling. I completely liked the feel and style of the roti kukus— its pillowy delicate and fluffy texture.Â
I began off with Kaya Butter. Honestly, I used to be trying ahead to the opposite flavours however this surprisingly ended up being my favorite. The kaya had a wealthy, creamy coconut style and luscious texture, and complemented the butter properly. I feel the rationale I liked this a lot was as a result of it jogged my memory of my childhood when the roti man would come on his motorbike and serve up his 60 cent kaya and butter buns.Â
Next was the Crunchy Chocolate. The chocolate filling tasted just like the processed, store-bought varieties and I personally felt this was a bit too candy for my style buds. But I did benefit from the crunchy bits within the chocolate because it gave the filling a extra satisfying texture.Â
I admit I had some difficulties with the ultimate roti kukus. The heat bread had brought on the Cookies Cream filling to change into tremendous flowy, virtually like a liquid, as in comparison with its common creamy, thick texture. This meant as an alternative of staying put within the bun, the filling selected to as an alternative circulation into the plastic container. So what was left within the bun was a smidgen of filling. However, I might nonetheless style the milky candy cream with cookie crumbs which paired fantastically with the delicate and fluffy white bread.Â
Final ideas
If you’ve obtained a candy tooth that wants satisfying, Roti Wap Bangi’s candy, creamy fillings will certainly do the trick. However, I wanted the buns might be bought with out the filling as a result of the delicate, fluffy texture can be good to mop up piping scorching rooster curry or lamb keema.Â
If you propose on swinging by, simply remember to start out queuing as quickly as they open in any other case you may return house empty-handed. Don’t say I didn’t let you know so!Â
