Chicken kottu roti gets a sweet and spicy lift from NaiMiris Chili Jam, with vegetables, egg, and warm Godamba roti.

Ingredients For the Kottu

4 Godamba rotis, cut into thin strips
250g chicken breast, cooked and shredded
2½ tbsp NaiMiris Chili Jam
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 tbsp coconut oil
1 medium onion, finely sliced
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tsp ginger, finely chopped
½ cup carrots, finely shredded
½ cup cabbage, finely shredded
½ cup leeks, finely sliced
2 spring onions, sliced
1 tbsp soy sauce
½ tsp black pepper
Salt to taste
Juice of ½ lime

Method

Cook the Eggs

Heat a large wok or flat griddle over high heat with a little oil. Pour in the beaten eggs and scramble until just cooked. Remove and set aside.
Stir-Fry the Aromatics

Add the remaining oil to the wok and sauté the onions until softened. Add the garlic and ginger, cooking until fragrant.
Add the Vegetables

Stir-fry the carrots, cabbage, and leeks over high heat for 2–3 minutes until just tender while retaining some crunch.
Add the Chicken

Add the shredded chicken and stir well. Mix in the soy sauce, black pepper, and NaiMiris Chili Jam. Cook for 2 minutes until the chicken is evenly coated and lightly caramelized.
Toss the Roti

Add the sliced Godamba roti and scrambled eggs to the wok. Using two spatulas, chop and toss continuously until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined and heated through.
Finish

Add the spring onions and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Toss once more and serve immediately.
