Mauritius, a small island nestled in the Indian Ocean, is a melting pot of global cultures and traditions. Its long history has seen people from many different parts of the world migrating to the island, each contributing new ingredients and techniques. The result is a vibrant street food culture that offers a flavourful fusion of East Indian, African and Chinese influences with distinctive French and English twists.
Chef Vanesha Nuckchaddee-Khadaroo is the founder of La Marmite Mauricienne – Mauritian Pot, a catering company serving uniquely delicious Mauritian cuisine across the GTA. http://www.mauritianpot.ca/
