Every cuisine has its own unique bread. What baguettes are for the French and bagels are for New Yorkers, is Mas Huni to the Maldivians! This chapatti-like flat bread made using grated fresh coconut is very similar to the Pol Roti from the neighbouring country of Sri Lanka. Huni Roshi is used to scoop up curries and there’s even a version of it where its baked with Mas Huni inside.
