When I first read the recipe it reminded me of spaghetti or a lasagna sauce. Perhaps Goulash. Probably just the mood when I read it. The friend who sent it to me is a solid cook. Will try eventually, best I can. Recipes and me don’t always get along. We’ve been on numerous TroutBum trips together and he carries a six pack of El Pato and personal spice mixture wherever he goes
