Discover local African gems

Famous for its ancient cultures, stunning landscapes and exotic wildlife, Africa's many cuisines are influenced by thousands of years of rich history. Central African cuisine is strongly tied to native tradition and makes extensive use of local ingredients such as cassava and peanut. North African cuisine is notable for its Arabic-inspired tagines and fragrant couscous, while European influences feature in Southern African dishes like Potjiekos (African stew) or Koeksister (a fried doughnut dessert). In East African cuisine, Indian-style curries can be found alongside more traditional fare.

The African restaurant movement is in its infancy in Australia, but with its vast array of flavoursome dishes and a focus on communal dining, it's fast becoming a takeaway favourite. 

Popular dishes

Egg Brik

North African cuisine features Egg Brik, the national dish of Tunisia – thin, triangular, phyllo pastry (Malsouka) wrapped around a filling of whole egg, chopped onion, tuna, parsley and Harissa. This is the spicy paste is used in almost every – and usually spicy – Tunisian meal, it is made from chillies, garlic, lemon and a mix of caraway, cumin and coriander seeds. Kefta Mkaouara (aka Moroccan Meatball and Egg Tagine) is a traditional dish of small beef or lamb meatballs simmered in a spicy tomato-based sauce, with boiled eggs added in the last few minutes. Ful Madames (aka Stewed Fava Beans) is the national dish of Egypt – a delicious spicy stew of beans stirred with olive oil, lemon juice and garlic. Frequently eaten for breakfast (easily delivered through Menulog).

Jollof Rice

West-African-influenced cuisine is known for both its flavours and the healthy fruit and veggie-based cooking. Every country has its own unique variation of Jollof Rice. This one-pot dish is a tomatoey-spicy-long-grain-ricey meal bursting with flavour and crammed with peppers, crayfish, crab and shrimps simmered in a delicious stock. Chicken Yassa is a spicy Senegalese dish made from onions, garlic, peppers and cabbage that topped with a chicken marinated in lemon. Superkanja is a Gambian okra stew that packs a nutritious and flavoursome punch with lots of leafy greens, like collards and spinach mixed with onions, chilli peppers and fish or meat. This dish has unique variations all over West Africa, like Kontomire from Ghana.
