Calulu is a typical dish from Angola (Angolan cuisine) and São Tomé and Príncipe (Cuisine of São Tomé and Príncipe). Preparations of it can include fish or meat.
==Origin== In Angola, calulu is the name given by the Bacongo to the portion of food set aside at the end of a meal by women to leave for their husbands and is considered by many linguists to be the true origin of the word. However, certain references point to a non-African origin for the name of the dish.
