Directions
Pasta Saltata Ethiopian Style, Italian influences from when Ethiopia was part of Africa Orientale Italiana (Italian East Africa) The traditional Genovese version of the dish also has potatoes in it , I am an Ethiopian, from the Horn of Africa, born and raised I am an excellent cook There is nothing Ethiopian about this recipe We don’t cook with olive oil and don’t use nuts in food Neither do we add parmesan And what the heck is harissa Would be great if you stuck to the truth and told people this was your own creation To correct your mistaken take on history, Ethiopia was never a colony of Italy It was a five-year occupation , Italian influences from when Ethiopia was part of Africa Orientale Italiana (Italian East Africa) The traditional Genovese version of the dish also has potatoes in it
