it's not really a somali dish but a djibouti/yemeni dish called mokhbaza or fata moos with a grilled fish and xulba (fenugreek paste) on the side. :up:

Oh yeah and xaniid! :up:

Hyper,

you hate mukhbazad oo waliba hoyada gacanteeda ku sameysey :shock: Not cool my youth!

Unfortunately, I have to make it myself and I manage passably. I buy some roti or paratha from the indian bakery around the corner, put it in the food processor to grind it, I buy some ripe bananas, a bit of olive oil and mix it all up. Since I can't get fish like the deerag or bayaat from back home, I settle for some smoked salmon from the supermarket and as for the xulba, I have it in powder, also from the indian store, I add a bit of lemon juice and water and I am good to go. It's definitely not as good as the one your mom makes but I don't have much of a choice!
