Pasta Saltata Ethiopian Style

Features:
    Cuisine:

    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.
