Rotee

I discovered something wonderful, delicious, and probably unhealthy in Thailand that I am finally going to blog about. It is called a Rotee. With the craziness of leaving Korea this past month, and now moving, it's been hard to find the time or energy to blog.

A Rotee is a thin, fried dough. The most basic is just the dough, similar to pizza dough and rolled very thin (like a skin), folded into a kind of envelope, and fried on both sides with either oil or clarified butter. It is then cut into bite-size pieces and can be eaten plain, but is most often drizzled with condensed milk.

The Rotees I ate were filled with banana and some other filling. One of them was banana and egg and topped with condensed milk, the other was banana and honey and topped with condensed milk, and the third was normal banana and topped with chocolate and condensed milk.

They are really delicious, and I am hoping to reproduce them someday soon.
