Banana Roti – Snacks and Sweets from A Taste of Well-Being

BANANA ROTI

Ingredients

2–3 ripe bananas, peeled, chopped
1 cup milk
2 tbsp powdered sugar
3 cups wheat flour (atta)
2 tbsp oil
½ tsp salt

Method

  • Blend the bananas in a blender.
  • Add the milk and sugar and whisk until smooth. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, combine the wheat flour and salt. Add the oil and then the banana mixture.
  • Mix everything into pliable dough and let it rest for about half an hour.
  • Divide the dough into small portions and roll into balls.
  • Roll out into small chapattis* or rotis.
  • Roast them on a griddle (tawa) until golden flecks show on both sides.
  • Serve warm.

This can be served drizzled with honey, sweet condensed milk, ghee*, powdered sugar, powdered jaggery* or even chocolate syrup. A little grated coconut can either top the roti or be stuffed into the dough before step 4.

Another variation common in Thai cuisine (also known as Thai Banana Pancake) is to roll the dough, then add chopped bananas in the centre and wrap the dough around it. This can be cooked or fried on the griddle. This makes for an ideal breakfast item.
