You’ve probably eaten frozen prata the traditional way, dipped in curry, but this instant flatbread is far more versatile than you think. With our list of frozen prata recipes, you can transform this staple into localised desserts such as kaya butter croissants, savoury snacks such as cheesy sambal garlic cups, and more.
Kaya-butter toast is a traditional breakfast enjoyed by most Singaporeans. Elevate this dish by having it in a croissant format, made easier with our Kaya Butter Croissant recipe, where we use frozen prata as the puff pastry. While we made our own kaya filling for these croissants, you’re free to use any store-bought kaya if that’s more convenient.

Ingredients:
2 pieces of frozen prata, cut into smaller circles

Red bean pancake is a sweet item I always reach out to at dim sum restaurants. Recreate this at home using frozen prata and store-bought red bean paste.
This is definitely my favourite recipe on the list—it’s more generously portioned than the red bean pancake you get at Chinese restaurants, and you’re free to stuff the pancake with as much filling as you want. The sesame seeds on top bring a nuttiness that helps cut through the sweetness of the red bean paste too.
Yield: 2 to 3 servings
Time needed: 15 minutes
Ingredients:
4 tbsp red bean paste
2 pieces of frozen prata
Black sesame seeds
White sesame seeds
1 tbsp oil
Directions:
