Honey is natural and lower in calories.

Sift 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour into a mixing bowl.

Make a crater in the center of the bowl and slowly pour in 1 cup of water, mixing with your hand.

Add in 1 beaten egg and knead into the dough.

Pour in 0.25 cup of melted margarine and knead the dough for a few minutes.

Brush a container with cooking oil and roll the dough into balls about the size of a tennis ball, aiming for 6 to 8 balls.

Coat the balls of dough with cooking oil to prevent sticking and set aside to rest for about 2 hours.

After 2 hours, brush cooking oil onto a plate and flatten one dough ball into a thin sheet using your hands.

Coat a frying pan with a small amount of melted margarine and fry the sheet of roti on both sides for a couple of minutes until golden brown and crispy.

Serve drizzled with condensed milk and sugar, or other toppings like chocolate or strawberry sauce.
