For those who know I'm from Mauritius, I would like to introduce you to the Mauritian cuisine. Mauritian cuisine, just like Singapore cuisine, is a blend of many types of cuisines such Creole, European, Indian and Chinese. One of the favourites of all Mauritians is the dhal puri, where the dhal is blended with the flour which gives it a very soft texture and a very flavourful. Apparently dhal puri can only be found in Mauritius and Papua New Guinea. I didn't know that until two years ago when I met someone from there.
Mauritian cuisine is not as spicy hot as Singaporean food but it is no less flavourful. We love our tomato and loads of herbs in all our dishes. A Mauritian will not have a meal without pulses. My personal favourite is black lentils. I really miss the food!! I can't wait to go back and taste Mum's and Dad's cooking (Dad's cooking is certainly the best, but can't tell Mum that).
