Prepare the dough by mixing water, salt, sugar, oil, and flour.

Knead the dough into a cohesive ball and let it rest for 10 minutes.

After resting, knead the dough into a smooth texture and divide into 4 equal portions.

Roll each portion into a ball and coat with oil, then cover and let rest for at least 1-2 hours or overnight.

Stretch the dough into a thin circle using the heel of your palm, flipping and twirling to achieve paper-thin texture.

Top the stretched dough with banana slices, vegan butter, and sprinkle with granulated sugar.

Fold the sides of the dough over the filling to create an enclosed roti.

Cook the roti seam side down in a heated pan over medium to low heat until golden brown and crispy, flipping to cook both sides.
