How to eat a roti
Pick it up
Find a corner
Bite in
Watch some spill out
Complain because your first bite was only skin and potato
Take another bite
Chew, swallow, pause and add pepper
Then bite another corner
Watch half spill out
Complain again that the meat doesn’t have enough bone
Reach the mango and sigh…cause it’s the best part
Pause for a bit
Take a drink
(Red solo if you have it)
Wipe your hands
Pick back up the roti
And dig in until all that’s left is two pieces of bone and some dried mango seed
That’s how you eat a roti
