Method:

  1. To prepare the roti: combine the flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl.
  2. Pour the oil into the water, then add this mixture to the flour mixture to form a dough.
  3. Mix well. Knead for about 5 minutes until dough is very smooth.
  4. Divide into 6 balls of dough. Set aside for about 2 hours, covered with a damp cloth.
  5. Using a rolling pin, roll each ball into a thin flattened circle, a poori, about 9 inches in diameter. Set aside, covered.
  6. To prepare the filling: Combine the chicken and all the other ingredient- except the oil and the garnish.
  7. Mix well and marinate for 2 hours or longer. When done marinating, add 2 tablespoons oil to a saucepan and heat to medium.
  8. Add the chicken mixture and cook, stirring constantly for about 5 minutes.
  9. Add the water then cook on low for about 5 minutes, or until chicken is tender. Keep warm.
  10. Add 2 tablespoons of oil to a skillet or grill. Place the rolled roti on the killet.
  11. Fry each side for about 2 minutes, or until lightly browned. Brush each side with margarine or oil.
  12. Wrap in clean towel to keep warm until ready to serve.
  13. When ready to serve, fold about 2 tablespoons of chicken mixture into each round and serve.
  14. Garnish with scallions and Scotch Bonnet pepper.
