 Masala Makki ki Roti/Maize Flour Flat bread 

Ingredients: 

1 cup maize flour 
2 tbsp gram flour
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh methi leaves
1/2 cup chopped spring onions
2-3 chopped green chillis
handful coriander leaves 
1/2 tsp carom seeds/ajwain
salt to taste
red chilli powder to taste
warm water to make the dough
1 tsp oil

Directions: 
Mix all the ingredients together and add warm water little by little to make a soft dough, dont over knead the dough if u do that the rotis will not be nice and soft (note this dough can’t be kept after making, so make it just before u start making)
Now the thing with makki ki roti is the difficulty to roll it, u can’t easily roll it out so don't use rolling pin just make the roti with hand (i don't use rolling pin ever to make makkin ki roti , always use my palms.

Or you can use this method to make the makki ki roti:

Cut a zip pouch or any other polythene cover from all sides apart from one, place the dough ball in the middle and than roll it out. Don’t roll it out very thin. Its slightly thicker than the normal chapathi
Cook on a hot tava on both sides with 1tsp of oil
Enjoy hot as we didnt get sarsoon ka saag we had it with the mustard oil turnip bhaji or serve with just a hot cup of tea or coffee.
Enjoy!!!
