Suriname, officially known as the Republic of Suriname, is a country on the northeastern Atlantic coast of South America. It is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the north, French Guiana to the east, Guyana to the west and Brazil to the south.
Surinamese cuisine is a vibrant fusion of flavors and influences, reflecting the country's diverse cultural heritage. It combines elements from Indian, African, Javanese, Chinese, Dutch, and indigenous Amerindian culinary traditions. Popular dishes include roti, a flatbread served with curried chicken or vegetables; pom, a baked casserole made with chicken and root vegetables; and nasi goreng, a fried rice dish with Indonesian roots. The use of spices and fresh herbs is prevalent, creating rich and aromatic flavors. Street food is also a significant aspect of Surinamese cuisine, offering a variety of snacks like bara, a spicy fried dough, and loempia, a type of spring roll.
