The country: Angola was a Portuguese colony until 1975, so many of their foods have a Portuguese influence. This dish wasn't Portuguese- it was very West African.
Angola has thirty-one airports with paved runways.

Notes: So, I had thought I wouldn't make the dressing that went with the recipe, but after I tasted it I realized that was probably not the smartest idea. It really is just plain veggies, and that isn't exactly a flavor blast. The dish is still cooling in my fridge, but tomorrow my family is going to eat this along with their dinner, and I'm going to have to make a dressing (and 30 Rock is on tomorrow too- ahhh, the time crunch).
