[Periplus]

Isnt this borrowed from ethiopia

Canjeelo isn’t borrowed. If it was, we would be using teff in the dish.

This is borrowed from white ppl

Malawax isn’t borrowed. It’s a common Somali/Yemeni dish that’s existed for centuries.

This is also borrowed

Yes but it’s been varied so much over the past few centuries that it’s own thing.

However, I can change it to coffee which is considered by some historians to come from Somalia.

Malawax uses plain flour.

Pancakes use self-raising.

That’s why one is thick and the other is flat.

Not all pancakes are thick, there is a wide range of pancakes, for example the crepes made by the french are completely thin and have no self raising flour, my point is that malawax is just pancake there is not difference

When you imagine pancake, is that what really comes to mind??

Regardless, just because they’re similar doesn’t mean we borrowed it. Malawax has a long history in Somali/Yemeni culture. In fact Yemeni Jews took the recipe with them to Israel where it is now called Malawach.

Muufo is nice with suqaar.

Yes it is what Imagine, most ppl will make pancakes like this, its common.

Anyway I basically see malawax and pancakes as the same even if they originated in different places

apparently what they call "malawach/ khubz malawah" is similar to our sabaayad. ive heard some oromos/ethiopians eat this too and call it "mulawah". they dont actually eat what we call "malawax"
