African cuisine is a mix of ingredients such as cereal grains, vegetables, meat products, and locally available fruits. The traditional preparation features mostly milk, curd, and whey products in some parts of the continent. 

African cuisine will likely entice your palates because of its colorful presentation with mixed flavors brought about by local ingredients added to each dish. Interestingly, African foods have different tastes, textures, and smells. Additionally, it was later discovered in a study that out of 187 countries around the world, African diets are healthier compared to other diets because African cuisine contains mostly dietary fiber,  with low sugar, fat, and salt. 

Here are some of the list of African food you must try in New York City:

1. Ogbono Soup. This is a nutrition-packed and rich soup with ogbono seeds as the main ingredients.

2. Jollof Rice. This is an ultimately versatile dish made using pimento peppers, tomatoes, tomato paste, salt, onions, spices, and of course, rice.

3.  Moi Moi. Moi Moi is a pudding made of a mixture of steamed peeled and washed black-eyed beans, freshly ground papers, and onions.

5. Beef Stew.  This stew is made with combined red peppers, habanero peppers, and plum tomatoes all sliced to perfection. Other ingredients used include vegetables, olive oil, broth, and beef cuts.

6. Fufu Dishes. Fufu actually referred to a pounded and boiled ground produce like cassava, plantains dough or a mixture of the two. Other versions of fufu have lard, bacon, and butter added to them. Fufu dishes can be best eaten with Ogbono Soup.
