Welcome viewers and introduce the dish: Surinaamse Roti Plaat.

Gather ingredients: self-rising flour, cumin, potatoes, garlic, ginger, salt, black pepper, clarified butter, vegetable oil, and 300 ml of water.

Sift 500 grams of self-rising flour into a bowl to reduce dust.

Add a spoonful of clarified butter and 2 teaspoons of yeast to the flour.

Slowly add water to the mixture while mixing.

Knead the dough until it's smooth and not sticky, then place it in a greased bowl to rise for 1 hour, covered with plastic wrap or a towel.

While the dough rises, peel and chop the potatoes and boil them for 10-15 minutes until tender.

In a hot pan, add oil and cumin, and cook until fragrant, stirring occasionally to avoid burning.

Once the potatoes are boiled, mash them using a mortar and pestle or a blender with garlic and green chili for flavor.

Add cumin to the mashed potatoes for color and flavor.

Check the dough after 1 hour to see if it has risen, then divide it into balls and roll them out on a floured surface.

Fill each rolled-out dough with the potato mixture, fold, and seal the edges.

Heat a skillet until hot, then cook each roti, brushing with oil and flipping until puffed and golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side.

Repeat until all rotis are cooked and serve.
