Step 1

In the bowl of a stand mixer, combine the flour, water, coconut milk, eggs, salt and turmeric, and mix for 5 minutes, until smooth.

Step 2

Filter the resulting mixture through a cheesecloth or mix it for a few minutes in a blender to reduce any lumps.

Step 3

Heat a nonstick skillet, very lightly greased with vegetable oil or ghee, over medium heat.

Step 4

Fill the roti jala bottle with the batter and, working very quickly, drizzle the batter onto the pan in rapid circular motions forming a lacy or net pattern. Movements can also be horizontal and vertical.

Step 5

Let the roti jala cook for 1 to 2 minutes on one side (do not flip).

Step 6

Slide the roti jala from the pan onto a plate.

Step 7

Repeat the same process until all the batter is used up.

Step 8

When the rotis are cool enough to handle, fold both sides of the pancake and roll them to form a small cylinder.
