Did I say what island? Well, it’s confusing. Lamb makes me think of Ireland, but it’s Merguez sausage, so maybe Corsica, but the plantains would lead us to think Cuba. The spice might bring us Puerto Rico, so this really is a hash. It starts with onions, garlic, and poblano peppers. Then the spicy sausage from Hidden Creek Farms, then some sweet plantains ripe and double cooked. The sofrito the Poppi’s chili powder and some of Erin’s honey to tie it all together. I hope you like it.
