The word hedihika refers to any kind of fried snack or 'short eat' that is served in local eateries. Recipes are typically savoury, and fish based with popular versions including keemia - fried fish rolls, bajiya - a pastry filled with fish, onions and coconut, and masroshi - fish wrapped in a roti and baked. Bis keemiya can also be considered a form of hedhika. Most eateries have their own recipes for a particular short eat, so do try some of these fried treats whenever possible to taste the different varieties.
