Egyptian Cuisine

Egypt has got a multicultural cuisine and that is why we can see a great selection of ingredients and ways of cooking, putting together all the traditions that have influenced gastronomy in the country. One of the reasons for this is that Egypt is between Africa and Asia and cuisine has got influences from both continents. If you want to try some of the specialities of the local cuisine, you only have to go to a traditional restaurant or to a local resident.

Egyptian Cuisine

Meat is usually grilled or roasted, whole or minced, lamb and chicken prevailing (we don’t have to forget that we re talking about a Muslim cuisine and pork is strictly forbidden. You will see plenty of cows, but they are meant for agricultural work.) The shish kebabs are very popular and served on with or without skewers, but traditionally accompanied with: green vegetables and a salad of tomatoes and bread. The traditional salad consists of sliced tomatoes, coriander, spearmint, green hot pepper, garlic and onion. Grated or sliced aubergine is the main ingredient of the babaganoush, and of the Egyptian moussaka together with fromage blanc.

We can easily find gumbo, cabbage, cauliflower and potatoes cooked with tomatoes and garlic. The basic ingredient we will find in the Egyptian cuisine is rice, they have it for almost everything, so do not be surprised if you see it for breakfast. The grilled pigeon is one of the most delicious dishes but not so easy to eat. You will also find various sorts of fish of the Red sea, such as fried perch and tuna, water-sushi, and au naturel. "Orient" implies various spices.
