From Cameroonian grilled fish and Soweto-style chisa nyama to Ethiopian injeera with delicious vegetarian stews, there's plenty of African food to be found. It's not a strict definition as there's a lot of African-influenced food too, whether it's the Indian curries influenced by local cooking styles or Mozambican-style Portuguese food.
