Honey offers natural sweetness with fewer additives.

In a large mixing bowl, combine salt and water and whisk until salt is dissolved. Add condensed milk and egg, whisk until combined.

In another bowl, add flour and butter, and use your fingers to rub butter into flour until no more big chunks are visible.

Add flour-butter mixture to water mixture and knead with your hands quickly just until all the dry flour has been absorbed. Cover bowl with a damp cloth or plastic wrap and let rest for 15 - 30 minutes.

Once dough has rested, transfer onto a clean work surface and continue kneading with your hands for about 5 minutes. If the dough is still sticking to your hands, add a little bit of extra flour and knead it in.

Once the dough is kneaded, let rest for another 10-15 minutes to relax the gluten.

While dough is resting, mix together melted butter and oil for coating dough balls.

Stretch dough into a log, then cut into 80g pieces (you will get about 11 pieces total).

Form each dough piece into a ball by pinching the edges together towards the centre.

Brush the butter/oil mixture on the bottom of the container you’re using to store dough balls. Then brush each dough ball generously with butter mixture and place into container.

Let dough rest at least 3 hours, or refrigerate the dough and cook it the next day. If refrigerated, remove from fridge at least 2 hours before using.

On a clean, lightly oiled work surface, press a dough ball into a flat disk.

Stretch the dough into a very thin sheet, trimming off the thicker edges.

Heat a 12-inch flat skillet over medium heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom.

Transfer the stretched dough into the pan and arrange banana slices in the center.

Fold the edges of the roti over the banana and cook until both sides are browned and crispy, about 4-5 minutes.

Transfer roti onto a cutting board, cut into pieces, and drizzle with condensed milk or chocolate sauce.
