Maldivian Food

In the Maldives, our customary dining practice involves consuming our meals in a single course for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. For breakfast, the typical Maldivian meal consists of Maldivian flatbread known as roshi, accompanied by a delectable combination of tuna and coconut sambal called Boshi mashuni. As for lunch and dinner, it is customary to serve plain rice or roshi alongside a side dish.


Desserts can be enjoyed during lunch and dinner, although they are commonly associated with special occasions like Eid and other traditional holidays.


There are several popular dishes that are commonly prepared in Maldivian households on a regular basis. However, the culinary delights of the Maldives extend far beyond these familiar dishes.
