The breathtakingly beautiful Maldives is not just famous for its stunning coastlines and mesmerising array of watersports. Its unique and delicious cuisines, which you can try out at many a Maldives restaurant located at five-star properties such as The Nautilus Maldives, add to the tropical ambience that makes this destination more famous.
Mas Roshi
A delectable savoury snack from the Maldivian cuisine, Mas Roshi is a type of a flatbread that is usually stuffed with a mouthwatering filling of smoked tuna and coconut, along with some other spices. The stuffed chapati-like Mas Roshi is pan-fried and served hot.
SaaguBondibai
Made out of sago, the spongy mids obtained from a palm tree, SaaguBondibai is a variety of pudding that is cherished by the natives. Sago is warmed with coconut milk and made more flavoursome with condensed milk, cardamom, and rose.
Garudhiya
With its main ingredient being a type of tuna, Garudhiya can be described as a clear yet flavoursome fish broth. Originally, this dish was a three-ingredient broth, including tuna, salt, and water. However, the Maldivians also add onions, curry leaves, and chillies to suit their taste.
Reef Fish Cutlets
A delicious mixture of tuna and potatoes is what hides beneath the scrumptious exterior of the Reef Fish Cutlets. The mixture is shaped into small balls, bathed in egg and covered in bread crumbs and fried in oil to get its golden exterior.
