Muqmad or Oodkac is a Somali dish consisting of preserved meat. The term Muqmad is used in Djibouti and throughout Somaliland; the term Oodkac is more popular in central and southern parts of Somalia.

It is typically eaten with Canjeero or Lahoh, but sometimes by itself. Although it is more usual for it to be eaten for breakfast and lunch, it is also sometimes eaten for dinner.[1]

Muqmad or Oodkac is made by letting the meat cook and soak in melted butter, and then cutting it into cubes.[2]
