I read about this appetizer in African Cooking. The author described that when he was in Luanda, the capital of Angola, he would being his dinners with large, deep-orange papayas. He would eat them with the juice of an Angolan lime, sweetened by a few drops of port. Make sure to use very ripe papayas.
