THE TOP 10 TRADITIONAL SOMALI FOODS - CHEF'S PENCIL

From chefspencil.com
  • Canjero. Canjeero is the most common breakfast in Somalia. This light meal, perfect for early risers, is what every Somali eats before going to school or work.
  • Muufo. Muufo is rich in carbohydrates as it’s made from a corn flour dough. Without any yeast, the traditional Somali Muufo does not rise during baking.
  • Baasto (Spaghetti) Yes! Pasta is a favorite in Somali cuisine and it’s loved by all. This is not a huge surprise as Somalia was once ruled by Italy. There are different pasta dishes, and the most popular is prepared with a traditional pasta sauce of meatballs, tomatoes, potato slices, garlic, onion, sunflower oil, and xawaaji (a Somali spice mixture).
  • Canbulo Iyo Bun (Beans and Coffee Berries) This is a centuries-old traditional food for the Somali people. It’s either a combination of beans and rice, beans and wheat, or sorghum and wheat with dry coffee berries fried with oil.
  • Soor. Soor (also known as ugali in East Africa) is a popular stable food made with ground maize. The flour is cooked with water and salt, and to soften it up, fresh or sour milk (caano garoor).
  • Bariis (Rice) Rice, locally known as bariis, is the national dish of Somalia and a stable in every Somali household. It can be prepared in three different ways.
  • Sambusa. Sambusa is one of the most loved Somali desserts that everyone enjoys. It is a popular street food found at any food stall, but can also be found at fine-dining restaurants.
  • Sabayad iyo Maraq. Sabayad is more like a msemen or chapati pancake – unleavened flatbread. To prepare sabayad, mix warm water, cornflour, salt, and margarine or oil together.
  • Moos Bukeeni (Plantain Stew) The Somali people living on the fertile lands around rivers love plantain. In the old days, Somalia was a central hub for banana exports in Africa.
  • Oodkac (Jeryky-style Beef Cubes) Oodkac is essentially the most important Somali dish. In the early days, it was prepared during the rainy season, when milk is abundant and meat is aplenty in preparation for the dry seasons ahead.
