RM2.50 roti kukus filled with oozing chocolate & kaya butter sells out in 3 hours

In the event you grew up consuming roti kukus (steamed buns) dipped in curry, you then would know the enjoyment of a heat, fluffy bread. Nonetheless, most just lately, one roti kukus stall, Roti Wap Bangi in Selangor has been garnering viral consideration on social media and for an excellent motive— the freshly steamed buns are flooded with candy fillings like chocolate and cookies and cream! 

The roti kukus bought at Roti Wap Bangi is so common that it sells out in lower than 3 hours, and you may assure you’ll be in for a protracted queue. Curious, I acquired into my automotive and made the hour-long drive to Bangi and boy, regardless of arriving 10 minutes proper after the stall had opened, there was already a queue of hungry prospects. 

What I attempted at Roti Wap Bangi

The fillings for the roti kukus are available 4 indulgent flavours: Kaya Butter, Crunchy Chocolate, Cookies Cream and their best-seller, Milk Chocolate. Sadly, the highly-desired Milk Chocolate filling was sold-out the very day earlier than my arrival. Alas! All of the extra motive to drown my sorrows in sweets (and to return to strive that out).

You will get an particular person roti kukus with the filling of your selection for RM2.50 however I like to recommend the 3 piece set (RM7) as a result of this manner, you get to strive extra flavours and it’s extra inexpensive. But when 3 items don’t do your candy tooth justice, double it with the 6 piece set at simply RM12. 

It’s fascinating watching the workers dish out the roti kukus. The second a buyer locations an order, the workers uncovers the steamer basket and removes the fluffy roti kukus earlier than inserting it right into a plastic container. Every roti kukus is then flooded with a beneficiant quantity of filling.

Once I picked up every particular person bun, I used to be shocked at how gentle it was. The buns had been heat to the touch and the wells within the centre of every bun contained a beneficiant quantity of oozy, flowy filling. I completely liked the feel and style of the roti kukus— its pillowy mushy and fluffy texture.

I began off with Kaya Butter. Truthfully, I used to be wanting ahead to the opposite flavours however this surprisingly ended up being my favorite. The kaya had a wealthy, creamy coconut style and luscious texture, and complemented the butter nicely. I believe the rationale I liked this a lot was as a result of it jogged my memory of my childhood when the roti man would come on his bike and serve up his 60 cent kaya and butter buns. 

Subsequent was the Crunchy Chocolate. The chocolate filling tasted just like the processed, store-bought varieties and I personally felt this was a bit too candy for my style buds. However I did benefit from the crunchy bits within the chocolate because it gave the filling a extra satisfying texture. 

I admit I had some difficulties with the ultimate roti kukus. The nice and cozy bread had brought about the Cookies Cream filling to change into tremendous flowy, nearly like a liquid, as in comparison with its standard creamy, thick texture. This meant as a substitute of staying put within the bun, the filling selected to as a substitute circulation into the plastic container. So what was left within the bun was a smidgen of filling. Nonetheless, I may nonetheless style the milky candy cream with cookie crumbs which paired fantastically with the mushy and fluffy white bread. 

Ultimate ideas

In the event you’ve acquired a candy tooth that wants satisfying, Roti Wap Bangi’s candy, creamy fillings will certainly do the trick. Nonetheless, I needed the buns could possibly be bought with out the filling as a result of the mushy, fluffy texture could be good to mop up piping scorching rooster curry or lamb keema. 

In the event you plan on swinging by, simply take into account to begin queuing as quickly as they open in any other case you may return residence empty-handed. Don’t say I didn’t inform you so!
