Breadfruit

Here we have the recipe for one of the most popular local rice dishes, Bambukeyolee Baiy. It’s a simple dish; rice is cooked with breadfruit and coconut milk.

Breadfruit is cooked with turmeric and coconut milk and the resultant mixture is creamy, mild and delicious.

Bambukeyo Bongara is a breadfruit curry made with roasted spices and Maldivian fish paste ‘rihaakuru’. 

Kulhi Baipen is local rainy day comfort food. It’s spicy, it’s salty and it’s filling; so what more can you ask for?

Banbukeylu Hithi is a really mild and slightly bitter breadfruit curry that's great with both rice and roshi.

Our version of the very simple, very sweet, and so, so delicious Boakuri Bambukeyo.

A lovely combination of breadfruit, spices and rihaakuru; we really should eat this more often!

We like bondibai in general. But of all the types of bondibai that we have here, bambukeyo bondibai is definitely our favourite.
