its just Ethiopian food (which is good), Caribbean food is the best in the world, and black southern food is pure happiness. we need to send an envoy the the chinese people lol. its still nice they like the Ethiopian food they say its fun and chaotic like the weekend. ill take it!
Could you post your favorite dishes? Doesn’t matter if vegan or not, I’ll veganize them myself as much as I can. It’s a cuisine I’m really interested in, I have enough african shops where I live that even oddities of ingredients should be procureable but I just have 0 idea where to start at and every time I google it it’s all entirely south african food
copying another comment asking about Caribbean dishes
as for black southern food try collard greens, mac and cheese, candied yams, fried mushrooms, okra, grits (not sure how that would be vegan, use LOTS of vegan butter) cornbread, black eyed peas, and sweet potato pie. im blessed to be surrounded by black vegan restaurants if you are too you MUST go. i command you.
also i cant recommend any african foods because i dont cook any (yet) i just go to this vegan Ethiopian place and order a little of everything and make my partner eat anything I dont like lol.
curry is the best place to start and the pre mixed spice powders are good just look for “Jamaican curry”. add onions bell peppers and a protein and dumplings and potatoes, lemon juice, garlic powder and you have my favorite food.
