Sounds something like Fish and Chips, but this one is completely different from the Famous English meal. This is one of the favorite snacks of the Maldivians. It is a combo of fresh cut coconut flesh, dried tuna, sour mango, salt, chili, onion, garlic and black pepper. Sometimes you can get Rihaakuru as well (the dark brown stuff on the top left corner of that tray).
Just make your own combinations and eat different ingredients separately or together to get your own taste. If you like spicy use more chili. It could go like this: have a piece of dried tuna first and dip a piece of sour mango into rihaakuru and eat it, then dip a piece of coconut in salt and chili then eat it while you still have the mango. Then have onion, garlic and black pepper based on your choice. The mixture of ingredients will give the taste. People here eat it like crazy, non-stop until the whole tray is finished and then order some more.
It's available at small stalls (Gaadiya) in the Boduthakurufaanu Magu, starting from the south-east corner of Male' near Raalhu Gandu bus stop and all the way through this road till the west of the island. The gaadiya's usually have seats where you can relax while you enjoy Mas Kaashi.
