Makki Ki Roti
This post is also available in: हिन्दी
In this post we will learn how to make makki ki roti. I have also prepared video of it.
Makki ki roti is made with flour made with corn. Usually, it is eaten in the winters in India in the lunch or dinner.
It tastes best with the sarso ka saag or palak paneer.
About Makki ki Roti
Makki ki roti is made with flour made with corn. We call it as makki ka atta. And very few spices are added to it.
Note: Cornflour is different from the makki ka atta. So be careful while buying the makki ka atta. Cornflour is white colour and makki ka atta is of light yellow colour.
Makki ki roti tastes best with the sarso ka saag. But you can have it with palak saag, palak paneer, or any other indian sabji or dal in the winters.
I used to prepare makki ki roti and bajre ki roti in the alternate day in the winters. Generally we take daily 1-2 roti of these with regular roti.
And my family enjoy it daily in the winters.
