'''Makki ki roti''' ([[Devanagari]]: मक्की की रोटी) is a flat [[Leavening agent|unleavened]] bread made from [[cornmeal|corn]] meal (maize flour),<ref>{{cite book | last=Jaffrey | first=M. | title=Madhur Jaffrey's World Vegetarian: More Than 650 Meatless Recipes from Around the World | publisher=Potter/TenSpeed/Harmony | year=2014 | isbn=978-0-307-81612-2 | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=L7zCAwAAQBAJ&pg=PA797 | pages=797–799}}</ref> primarily eaten in [[Jammu Division|Jammu]], [[Himachal Pradesh|Himachal]], [[Haryana]], [[Rajasthan]], [[Gujarat]], [[Uttar Pradesh]], [[Uttarakhand]] and [[Punjab|Punjab region]] in [[North India]] and [[Pakistan]]. Like most [[roti]]s in the Indian subcontinent, it is baked on a ''[[tava]]''. <br />
<br />
Literally, ''makki ki roti'' means 'bread of maize' in the [[Hindi]] language. ''Makki ki roti'' is yellow in color when ready, and has much less cohesive strength, which makes it difficult to handle. <br />
<br />
Makki di roti is generally made during winter and is often accompanied with [[saag]] (especially [[sarson da saag]] i.e. cooked mustard green leaves). In [[Himachal]] it is also eaten with Maah (Urad) daal.<ref>{{Cite book|last=India|first=Anthropological Survey of|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=XEduAAAAMAAJ&q=Makki+Roti+|title=Himachal Pradesh|date=1996|publisher=Anthropological Survey of India|isbn=978-81-7304-094-8|language=en}}</ref> Among [[Dogras]] there are folk songs talking of Makki di roti like: "मक्के दी रोटी मोइये , सरेआं दा साग हो , पिप्पल मरोड़ी मरोड़ी करी खाना हो ।"<ref>{{Cite book|last1=Śāstrī|first1=Rāmanātha|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=SAASAQAAIAAJ&q=Makki+Roti+Dogra|title=(Rajata jayantī abhinandana grantha).|last2=Mohana|first2=Madana|last3=Langeh|first3=Baldev Singh|date=1970|publisher=Ḍogarī Saṃsthā|language=hi}}</ref> Maize food items are also popular in [[Rajasthan]] and one of that is Maize roti.<ref>{{Cite book|last1=Cūṇḍāvata|first1=Lakshmīkumārī|url=https://books.google.com/books?id=nWJuAAAAMAAJ&q=%E0%A4%AE%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%8D%E0%A4%95%E0%A5%80|title=Rajasthan Ke Reeti Rivaz|last2=Swarankar|first2=Ramesh Chand|date=2002|publisher=Pablikeśana Skīma|isbn=9788186782828|language=hi}}</ref> In fact, Maize is one of the staple diet of Bishnois of Rajasthan and [[Haryana]].<ref>{{Cite book|last=Singh|first=K.
