South Africa's identifiable Cuisine

While food also see, Prospecting and Fossicking is certainly not political, it is probably true to say that prior to the release of the great Madiba, Nelson Mandela, in 1990, the South African "culinary tradition" was considered to have been founded by the first Dutch settlers who arrived at the Cape of Good Hope during the 17th and 18th centuries. Interestingly, many of their recipes (a good example is bobotie) have been adopted by Cape Muslims, who have a very distinctive cuisine of their own.

Then there were the English settlers who brought a completely different approach to cooking - as well as the French and the Portuguese.

But at the end of the day, there are certain identifiable cuisines that have made their mark as South African rather than "foreign". These include African, Afrikaans (from the Cape Dutch), Cape Muslim, Natal Indian and a meld of European cuisines that have been adapted for a hot-climate country. checkout, RC Nitro Powered Cars

Many Indian workers were brought to South Africa, first as slaves during the 17th and 18th centuries, and then as indentured labourers during the 19th century, to work on the sugar plantations in that part of the country. consider, Pasir Gudang International Kite Festival There were also many Indian immigrants who chose to live in South Africa.
