  5. Add the diced onions, minced garlic, and cubed potatoes to the pot, stirring to combine.

  8. Remove the scotch bonnet pepper carefully to avoid bursting it, and crush a few potato cubes to thicken the sauce if desired.
  9. Place one roti flat on a plate, spoon a generous portion of curry chicken and potatoes into the center, and fold the sides over to form a square wrap.
