STREET FOOD THAT YOU SHOULD EAT IN MYANMAR (BURMA)




Myanmar (Burmese) street food. I would like to know what kind of street food do you eat in your country.

Hi everyone!! Welcome back to my kitchen jungle….

Today I would like to introduce Myanmar (Burmese) street food that I ate for breakfast. These are Shan noodles, two kinds of Burmese pancake (Bane Mote and Mote Pyar Thatlet), and Dosa (or) Mote Yae Par. All of the Burmese street food are so delicious at a low cost. Make sure to eat this street food when you visit Myanmar. 

SHAN NOODLE


Shan noodle (Shan Kauk Swae) is one of the best and favorite noodles that originated from Shan state. Both the broth and dry noodles are covered with chicken or pork, tomato curry paste and tossed in chili sauce. Shan noodles are also served with pickled mustard green (mon nyin chin). You can also choose different kinds of noodles likes sticky noodles and flat noodles.  I enjoy this Shan noodle for breakfast but it absolutely can also be had at all times of the day.

BURMESE PANCAKE



Burmese pancakes are made using rice flour and I can eat them every day for breakfast. It is fluffy in the middle and slightly crispy on the sides. The brown one is with jaggery sauce and you can choose to have it with an extra egg top or sprinkle with nuts. So the brown one means they are suitable for those following a gluten-free and refined sugar-free diet.



 The white one is original and it’s topped with peas, coriander leaves and roasted sesame. I love to eat the original white one the most. My mom brought 4 pieces for one person for breakfast. Nowadays, Burmese people created with the white pancake, they add fried potato chips, egg, tomato, chili and other vegetables that you like. We also Burmese pizza because we add ingredients that we want to eat. In Yangon, people eat pancakes sprinkled with salt and sesame but in upper Myanmar, people eat with peanut oil, salt and sesame seed dipping sauce. Our family also eats the pancake with dipping sauce.



The last one is dosa or Mote Yae Par or Toa Shay and this is a kind of crispy and thin pancake. You can eat fresh because it is cooked immediately when you order. It is originated from India and a lot of Myanmar are love to eat for breakfast. You can eat the original one with special sauce and you can also choose dosa with jaggery sauce, dosa with pea, spring onion and roasted sesame, and special dosa with egg, bean powder and roasted sesame.



Another kind of dosa wrapped with cabbage, chickpeas, chili, carrot mixed with Indian curry powder is called “Gangster Dosa (Lan Thaye Mote)”.

This is my breakfast today and I would like to know what kind of food do you eat for breakfast in your country.
