It is a fusion of local dishes with Asian and European elements. Maldivian cuisine is more on seafood, while vegetables are commonly used as fillings. Tuna is very abundant in the Maldives and is served at almost every meal of the day which could be prepared fresh, boiled, sun-dried or smoked. Most of the meals in the Maldives are served with “roshi”, which is a local bread, made with flour, salt, oil, water, and cooked in a hot griddle. Flavors of Maldivian cuisine range from mild, spicy, hot, to sweet blends of mouthwatering goodness. Asian ingredients are also very distinct in Maldivian cuisine, which also uses spices such as curries, coconuts, ginger, chili peppers, etc. Initially, coconuts and fish had always become a part of the traditional Maldivian cuisine. Deserts in the Maldives are mostly made from the different tropical fruits that can be found in almost every part of the island. Honey is made through extracting coconut toddies and is used as a replacement for sugar. The humidity of the island and the soil makes the Maldives a perfect spot for growing rich and exotic tropical fruits such as pineapples, bananas, lemons, limes, avocados, watermelons, oranges, mangoes, grapefruits, and coconuts. Maldivian cuisine allows you to explore the different flavors which also reflects the country’s rich culture and its wonderful bliss of paradise.
