If you want to give a twist to your usual aloo paratha aka Potato masala stuffed rotis, am sure my today's post will definitely tickle your tastebuds. Masu Aluvi Roshi, this incredible stuffed flatbread is from Maldives. This fantastic flatbread is stuffed with a mild spicy and very delicious stuffing. Yes a spiced, cooked tuna fish and potato masala once stuffed with an all purpose flour dough makes this ultimate flatbread. As much as like our Indian stuffed flatbreads, this Maldivian flat bread can be enjoyed without any side dish. You can roll this flatbread round or as squares depending upon how you want to shape your Mas Aluvi Roshi.
Am running this week's blogging marathon with Stuffed flatbreads from different countries as theme. After a meaty Azerbaijani stuffed flatbread, i couldnt resist to post this fabulous Maldivian flatbread. Easy to make, the stuffing calls for simple ingredients. Spiced with chopped green chillies, curry leaves, trust me i have completely fallen in love with the stuffing. If you want the stuffing more spicy, dont forget to add red chilly powder as you desire. We enjoyed this flatbread thoroughly for our dinner, as i told earlier these flatbreads doesnt need any side dish to enjoy.

Oh wow these are just like our Aloo paratha, with and addition of Tuna. Sounds interesting.
I am not a fan of tuna but reading the ingredient list for the filling, I am salivating. A nice twist to our own aloo paratha. I am always amazed how similar some of the food is, across the countries.
This looks so Similar to our parathas...I don't eat Tuna ..but sure it looks so tempting
I guess tuna makes all the difference. Looks awesome Priya. Wish I could eat it..
Seriously tuna in a Paratha ? I had no clue that fish can be stuffed ! Lol !

That’s an interesting twist to the regular aloo paratha.....food is such a unifying factor across countries with each place having its own unique take on the same dish
Sounds and looks fantastic Priya, I am sure we could do with some choice..very good!
Yet another flatbread recipe. Really amazing to see how other cuisine's flatbread looks similar Indian flatbread.
The stuffed bread sounds very inviting with potatoes and tuna. Must be a treat for fish lovers.
wow - what an intersting filling - its like a kroket filling in a flatbread as these are the main ingredients in Dutch and Sri Lankan krokets
Tuna as a stuffing is very interesting. I bet with potatoes they would have tasted really well.
