Best Makki di Roti in Sunnyvale

Makki di Roti is the traditional Punjabi corn flatbread that exists for one primary purpose: to be eaten alongside sarson ka saag, forming what is arguably the most iconic food pairing in all of North Indian cuisine. At Naan N Masala, the roti is made from stone-ground corn flour (makki ka atta), hand-shaped without a rolling pin—corn dough lacks the gluten that makes wheat dough pliable, so each roti is patted flat by hand in the traditional method—and cooked on a griddle until golden. The texture is dense, crumbly, and slightly sweet, with a grainy, rustic character that's completely different from any wheat-based bread on the menu. Makki di roti is a winter staple in Punjab, where the corn harvest coincides with mustard greens season, and the two dishes have been eaten together for centuries with a generous pat of white butter. This is peasant food in the best possible sense: nourishing, affordable, deeply connected to the agricultural rhythms of the land, and absolutely delicious when prepared with care. Naturally gluten-free (corn contains no gluten), makki di roti is also an excellent bread option for celiac or gluten-sensitive diners. Makki di Roti delivery in Sunnyvale and Milpitas is available daily. At $2.99, it's the most unique bread on the menu and a must-try for anyone ordering the sarson ka saag.
