Cuisine of Mozambique

Mozambican cuisine is a vibrant fusion of African, Portuguese, and Indian influences, characterized by its rich use of seafood, spicy stews, and staple ingredients like cassava and maize. Coastal regions emphasize fresh fish and crustaceans, while inland dishes feature goat, chicken, and beef, all enhanced by the fiery piri-piri chili and coconut flavors.
