East-African Indian Recipes

East African Indian food is a flavourful collision of Gujarati cooking with the ingredients of East Africa. This collection is personal: my Dad was born in East Africa, and these are the dishes his family cooked daily.

I recommend starting with plain mogo chips then working through the more creative twists!

Find party friendly maru bhajia and the iconic Kenyan street snack, masala chips, to comforting kasoli nu shaak — all made the way they were taught to me, by the people who grew up eating them.
