From Rome to the Azores

A Lasagna Reinvented

You won’t find my next post recipe in Little Italy or any trattoria. This lasagna is inspired by the bold flavors of Portugal; roasted egg plant, red pepper sofrito replaces the red sauce, smoky linguica or chourico, and a velvety cheese bechamel. A little Azorean spirit in every layer. I can’t wait to put this together and share. Soon.

In the meantime, enjoy these Portuguese fusion-like recipes I prepared, much to my family’s surprise and delight.
