Belgian Fries- Although we all call them, “French Fries” but actually they are Belgian; Yes! You heard me right, your favorite fries are claimed to be originated not in France but Belgium and that’s why the world’s best fries are served by Belgium. But still both the countries have a dispute as to which country basically invented this mouth-watering fast food item. Belgian fries which are soft inside and super crunchy outside are served with Mayonnaise as Belgians love dipping them with Mayonnaise dip rather than ketchup.

Moules-frites- Moules-frites are Mussels cooked in white wine, shallots, vegetables, parsley and butter. You can also try other variations with beer instead of white wine or with rich sauce made up of heavy cream. The dish is served with a bowl of Belgian fries and can be a great combination to try when you go out to explore some delicious Belgian dish there.

Eel in the Green- Eel in the green is nothing but Eel stewed in thick green sauce comprising of many green herbs such as parsley, watercress and basil. The herbs give a rich green color and flavor to the dish making it delicious and refreshing. It’s a cold-weather dish and is often served with the Belgian’s favorite, of course, the fries.

Waterzooi- Originated in Ghent (a city in the Flemish region of Belgium), Waterzooi is creamy fish stew made with eggs, cream and butter along with vegetables and herbs to give it a rich flavor. Nowadays, it is made from chicken commonly rather than fish and is the best dish to have in the coldest days in Belgium. Waterzooi is served as a soup garnished with parsley and it is worth trying for its rich creamy consistency.
