Method
- 1
Mix the flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Beat the egg with the water and 2 tablespoons of the melted butter, then stir into the flour to make a soft dough.
- 2
Knead for 5 minutes until smooth and stretchy. Divide into 4 balls, rub them with the oil, cover and leave for at least 30 minutes.
30 min - 3
On an oiled work surface, press one ball flat and stretch it with your fingertips into a very thin, almost see-through square, as big as you can without tearing.
- 4
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat with a knob of butter. Lay the dough in the pan and quickly put a quarter of the banana slices in the middle.
- 5
Fold the four edges into the centre to make a neat square parcel. Cook for 2 minutes each side until golden and crisp.
4 min - 6
Slide onto a board, cut into squares and drizzle with condensed milk. Repeat with the rest of the dough while the first ones are eaten.
