SAHANI: African Food & Recipes

Taste Africa, one dish at a time.

SAHANI is your guide to the rich food cultures of the African continent — from Cameroon's Ndolé to Ethiopia's Doro Wat. Explore authentic dishes from 15 African countries — each with its story, cultural context, recipe and nutrition facts. More dishes and countries to come.

DISCOVER
• A living home screen: the day's adventure rotates dishes from across the continent, every day
• Search and filter by country, diet (vegan, gluten-free…) and style (street food, stew, grilled…)
• Every dish comes with its history and cultural background — where it's from, when it's eaten, what it means

COOK
• Step-by-step recipes on every dish
• Guided cook mode: one step at a time, in large type, and your screen stays awake while you cook
• Save dishes to your Cook-It Wishlist and build your cooking journey
• Share a photo of your plate with the community (community photos are automatically checked before they appear on dish pages)
• Culinaire Miles and brigade badges: earn them as you cook your way across the continent

SCAN
• AI dish scanner: point your camera at a plate to identify the dish and see its nutrition where available — 20 free scans every month
