The Matriarch

This is my great grandmother (atuk's mom) Hajah Fatanah Hj Abdul Hanan. Nenek nyang is in Johor and staying with mom's aunties. I seldom see her but mom talks about her frequently, said nenek nyang makes the most wonderful roti pratha (roti canai). Whenever mom (when she was small) went back to her kampung in Permas Kelapa, Kukup nenek nyang would prepare the dough at night and after the subuh prayer she'd knead them and later fried them with ghee. I didn't get the chance to taste her delicacies as she is now in her 90s and no longer cooks.
