Khobz al tawa is a delicious bread from Yemen, it is especially popular in Aden and the southern areas. It gets the name tawa since it is cooked on a griddle or tawa. This is a layered flatbread with each layer greased with butter. Makes a wonderful bread to enjoy a creamy gravy.
When you stuff Khobz al Tawa is stuffed with egg and cheese, it’s called mutabak. With simple ingredients, it is nevertheless so delicious to enjoy with any side dish.
While I was checking out for flatbreads starting with K, I came across Kutti or Punjabi Choori, which is actually indian roti crumbled with sugar. Since I was working on a subtheme, having another sweet bread was out of question.
So I struck with Khobz al Tawa that seem to have been tried by all my BM friends. I wanted to pick up from my friends and settled on Sapana’s version. I also referred Queen of Sheba, one of the popular sites on Yemeni Recipes.
I served it with a creamy vegetarian gravy and mutton gravy for the nonvegetarians at home. Everybody loved how buttery it is.
Khobz Al Tawa is my pick for K in A to Z International Flatbreads. If you are interested to know what’s K for Street Food, Check my other space.
