One of Yemeni's must-have breakfast is Bakhamri. It is totally a typical fry bread( in malysia well known as chakoi or puri bread) and obviously with several typical ingredients but what makes it special is the present of black seed. Who else loves black seed? Cause I do!! :)
When I was in Yemen, I eat bakhamri like almost everyday! So Ive got the recipe from one of my yemeni friend and gonna share it in this blog ♡♡
