Murtabak Madness
Singapore
Originating from the searing waters of India, murtabak is a multi-layered pancake that's become a specialty in Singapore’s melting pot of heritage. Murtabak is like prata's big sister because of its size, which is why many roti prata places in Singapore also have murtabak on their menu. The pan-fried delicacy is thicker, more textured, and carries a more flavorful kick. It can come in sweet and savory variants, filled with anything from Oreo to Nutella or juicy meat and fresh vegetables. Visit these all-star spots in the Lion City for a taste of murtabak at its finest!
