Roti Canai is one of the most iconic Malaysian dishes and one of the charms of the culinary treat is the process of making it.
In fact, some restaurants even use the showmanship of the Roti Canai-making process to attract customers, most notably by tossing the flattened dough around in a theatrical way.
However, not all of these ‘flying’ Roti Canai end up exactly as planned, as showcased by this viral video.
Shared by @abgmadroticanai on TikTok, the video shows a young Roti Canai maker trying to show off his Roti Canai-making skills by tossing it around in front of a customer.
However, it seems that the flying Roti Canai has a mind of its own as it ended up landing on top of a toddler’s head.
The young Roti Canai apprentice then immediately and cutely apologised to the toddler and the entire family.
