South Sudan map

South Sudanese cuisine centers on sorghum, millet, and cassava, paired with meat and vegetable stews. Cattle herding traditions hold deep cultural significance across much of the country.

Kisra, a fermented sorghum flatbread, is a widely eaten staple. Ful, a stewed bean dish, remains a common and beloved everyday meal.
