Banana Kat Kat
Seychellois cuisine is based on an extraordinary variety of fish, found in the archipelago’s crystal clear waters. Tuna, the red snapper, ovctopus (known as “zourites”), rays, and the capitaine are among 800 species of fish and crustaceans that are found in abundance.
The “kat kat” is a popular dish made of green bananas, fish, and coconut milk.
