Hear hear.
We Dutch can enjoy these cultures now because of the ruthless exploitation of Indonesia and (North) African country’s for centuries and there are Dutch people still having a hard time showing immigrants any respect or hospitality, and where I live in growing numbers. It is disheartening but I am glad not to be like them.
Most of my cooking skills comes from learning from friends and family with Indo, Surinam and North African backgrounds. My sisters are all married to people from non Dutch cultures, so I am lucky there too. Also we live near the largest importer/distributor of Asian, Indonesian and Surinam foods in Europe. Very lucky.
My mother is a racist though, we don’t see her.
Heh, I posted about that history a while back. In the Netherlands we have a large community of Indonesian, Dutch West Indies and Surinam people, all with wonderful culture, music and food.
I used to overstuff my rotis and have the same result as you, but after much practice got the hang of it. I also make flabreads that are much easier to make, like parathas and chapatis. Also delicious.
Cheers!
It’s not too many pancakes, but a bit similar I am making too many Rotis today. There are many types of (stuffed) flatbread, today dahlpuri roti. I am making a bunch for the freezer as well.
Takes quite a bit of work, making the stuffing and all, so I already made the Doks Masala (Surinam style duck curry) and Madame Jeanette pepper sauce late last night to go with the Roti.
Also traditional to go with roti and doks masala is boiled eggs, patato masala and long beans. Scoop that stuff up with the roti, no fork or spoon needed, bare hands. I am looking forward serving this tonight.

Sound of rain on the window panes. It is a wonderful sound.
Been homeless for a couple of years when I was young and everytime I am happy and appreciative to be where I am now with small things like rain, or taking a warm shower for example, eventhough it has been decades ago I have been homeless.
I often still have dreams not being able to find my home.

First time I rented it on VHS back in the 80s, watch, rewind and watch again, next day same thing.
