I am not more keen than ever to try out the Brazilian & South American butcher on Mare St. The spicing looks like it might include turmeric judging by the colour of the juice.<br /><br />As Su-Lin says, there are pretty good rotis (and other Indian influenced food) from the Caribbean and north-east coast of South America. I've never been, but have tasted some good 'uns at festivals and in the US.<br /><br />At this rate you;re going to have to rename your blog Los Noodles ;)The Grubwormhttp://www.thegrubworm.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659859995099007525.post-22858763358652695482011-05-10T15:06:08.463+01:002011-05-10T15:06:08.463+01:00I used to buy meat at Carniceria Los Andes when I ...I used to buy meat at Carniceria Los Andes when I lived in Dulwich, nice to hear they are still going strong.

They taste amazing cooked on the BBQ and eaten with some frijoles and rice.<br /><br />If you like Colombian food you should check out Las Americas Butchers on Pope's road in Brixton. They usually have a few different kinds of Chorizo and a bakery section selling arepas, empanadas, bunuelos etc all of which are great.Let's Go Swimminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00885718617888508257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659859995099007525.post-68367692534463176032011-05-09T08:07:57.083+01:002011-05-09T08:07:57.083+01:00Su-Lin - I think you're right, the shaking is ...Su-Lin - I think you're right, the shaking is to make the roti fluffier, and as Selena below points out, also flakier. The curry was excellent and I think I may need to start investigating more Caribbean roti.<br /><br />Marcus - really? The inside of the caravan looks cramped and I'm scared I'd get roped in to help if I went inside. BTW - good luck with the sliders!<br /><br />Selena - thanks for the insights into roti. I'd love to know if you think the roti from the caravan is any cop. That said, I reckon your gran's would be better!Mr Noodleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13327242172810414292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659859995099007525.post-55030395772521261962011-05-08T23:40:55.846+01:002011-05-08T23:40:55.846+01:00My family is Guyanese so grew up eating curry &...My family is Guyanese so grew up eating curry & roti (my gran's is the best, but this looks pretty good!). Live nearby and been meaning to check it out. Roti is traditionally "clapped" - as in, taken off the griddle and thrown in the air a few times, caught between your hands to make it flakier. You need asbestos hands to do it though, so I'm guessing the plastic container is a little less painful if making in catering quantities!Selenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16711544428635092240noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8659859995099007525.post-16683495880387542602011-05-08T22:25:17.271+01:002011-05-08T22:25:17.271+01:00Love the roti van - the lady that runs it is a lit...Love the roti van - the lady that runs it is a little, uh, 'eccentric'.

There is a Caribbean roti called "buss up shut" (I've not tried it!) that's supposed to be all fluffy and wrinkled, just like a "bust up shirt". <br /><br />That curry looks excellent!Su-Linhttp://tamarindandthyme.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
