Makki Ki Roti

Makki ki roti / Maize/Corn flour Roti

Makki is maize and the roti or flat bread is made with maize flour. This roti is thin and is much like tortillas. Since maize or corn does not have proteins like gluten it lacks elasticity and all purpose flour or maida is used with it for ease of rolling rotis.


Recipe:

Equal amounts of maize flour and maida or all purpose flour, salt, water, oil.

Mix all ingredients together except oil to make a firm dough. Roll out thin rotis or circles. Heat griddle and cook rotis on each side until done. Brush a little oil on both sides. Serve with Sarson Ka Sag. Traditionally, it is served with curry, raw, sliced onion and lemon.
