Ma ka ʻaoʻao hema, ua hoʻoikaika nui ʻia ka meaʻai e nā kīʻaha Yemeni, e like me ka maraq (he stew spicy) a me ka haneeth (kahi kīʻaha hipa lohi). Ma ka ʻāina hikina, kahi i ʻike ʻia no kāna hoʻoilina luʻu momi, e ʻike ʻoe i nā kīʻaha i hoʻohuli ʻia e nā meaʻai India a me Iran, e like me ka biryani a me kabsa (kahi kīʻaha laiki me ka ʻiʻo a me nā mea ʻala).
