Mozambique Mozambique meals are quite different from most other African countries, as they have a strong Portugese influence. We were very pleased to eat from an African country and NOT have meat and bean stew! We ate Shrimp Mozambique, which is just shrimp simmered in some yummy ingredients (beer, butter, seasonings, parsley etc). We served it with rice and carrot sticks and it was really nice. Niamh is the shrimp queen so she loved it, and Dad just couldn't get enough!
