#healthyjunior - Makki Di Roti is a very popular Punjabi style flat bread. which is generally had with Sarson Ka Saag (mustard greens curry). They are a very healthy option. To make them more appetizing, I added some coriander leaves, ginger and carom seeds.

Chopped onions / fried onions too can be added, but instead I added some fresh grated coconut for a change. They can be enjoyed with any side dish (especially any green leafy vegetables), butter or yoghurt.
