Seychellois cuisine is the cuisine of the Republic of Seychelles, an archipelago country consisting of 115 islands. Fish plays a prominent part in country's cuisine^[1] because of its location in the Indian Ocean. The Seychelles's cuisine has been influenced by African, British, French, Spanish, Indian and Chinese cuisines.^[2][3]

The use of spices such as ginger, lemongrass, coriander and tamarind are a significant component of Seychellois cuisine.^[3] Fresh fish and fruits are sold by street vendors in various places.^[1]

Staple foods include fish, seafood and shellfish dishes, often accompanied with rice.^[1][3] Fish dishes are cooked in several ways, such as steamed, grilled, wrapped in banana leaves, baked, salted^[4] and smoked.^[1] Curry dishes with rice are also a significant aspect of the country's cuisine.^[3][5]

Additional food staples include shark, breadfruit, mangoes and fish.^[2]
