Sudan

Country - Sudan

Cuisine Description - Sudanese cuisine is varied by region, and greatly affected by the cross-cultural influences upon Sudan throughout history. In addition to the influences of the indigenous African peoples, the cuisine was influenced by Arab traders and settlers during the Ottoman Empire, who introduced spices such as red pepper and garlic, as well as Levantine dishes, Egyptian, Yemeni, Indian and Ethiopian Cuisines in the Eastern part
A wide variety of stews exist in Sudan, often paired with a staple bread or porridge. Further south, fish dishes become popular.
Sudanese food in the north is simpler, whereas foods further south reflect the influence of surrounding areas, such as the Yemeni influenced mokhbaza (banana paste) of eastern Sudan. Copyright Wikipedia
