Makki ki roti is a flat unleavened bread made from corn meal (maize flour).

Makki ki roti is yellow in color when ready, and has much less cohesive strength, which makes it difficult to handle.

In Punjab and neighbouring area it is also eaten with Maah (Urad) daal.

[8] Dogras have folk songs that mention Makki di roti.

[11][12] In Uttar Pradesh, maize roti is also eaten with ghee, butter, jaggery and pickles.
