ExploreMauritius Recipes

Mauritian cooking is a meeting point of Creole, Indian, Chinese and French kitchens, and this is where all of it lives in one place. Find island classics such as dholl puri, farata, gateaux piments, rougaille, vindaye, cari poulet, octopus salad, mine frite and bol renversé, alongside the sweets that close a Mauritian meal — napolitaine, gateau patate and alouda.

It is not only local food. The collection also covers everyday international recipes Mauritian families cook at home: pasta and pizza, chicken and beef mains, fish and seafood, soups and salads, breads and bakes, vegetarian dishes, cakes, cookies, smoothies and cocktails.

Every recipe is written with clear ingredient lists in Mauritian measurements, step-by-step instructions and, where available, a video to follow along. Recipes are published in English and French, so you can cook in whichever language you are comfortable with.
