Miruhulee boava

Miruhulee boava is a traditional dish originating from the Maldives. The dish consists of octopus tentacles that are braised in a combination of onions, garlic, cumin, curry leaves, chili peppers, peppercorns, coconut oil, and salt. The garlic, onions, and curry leaves are fried in oil, and the rest of the ingredients are blended into a thick paste. The octopus tentacles are added to the mixture, then braised over low heat until done. The dish is traditionally served on a large platter.
