Mont lin maya (Burmese: မုန့်လင်မယား; pronounced [mo̰ʊɴ lɪ̀ɴməjá]; also spelt mont lin mayar) is a traditional Burmese street snack or mont. The Burmese name literally means "husband and wife snack",[1] and is also known as mont ok galay (မုန့်အုပ်ကလေး, lit. 'little covered snack') or mont maung hnan (မုန့်မောင်နှံ, lit. 'couple snack')[2] in Mawlamyine and Upper Myanmar.
The dish consists of crisp, round savory pancakes made with a batter consisting of rice flour, quail eggs, chickpeas, and spring onions, fried in a special metal pan.
