During EatLafayette, Pamplona Tapas Bar is offering a buy two, get one free special from its Traditional Tapas menu. Chef de Cuisine David Harrower has added four new tapas items to the Traditional Tapas menu including the INDEats Dish of the Month, Embutidos y Pimientos. This dish features three handmade pork sausage links topped with braised peppers. It's heavy on flavor, but the light-tasting braised sauce makes it perfect for summer. Pair with a cool cocktail, like the Green Vespa, and enjoy on the patio for a deliciously Downtown experience.

Directions:
Heat oven to 450 degrees. In a stand mixer bowl, combine sausage ingredients and knead at low speed with paddle attachment for four minutes until well mixed. Stuff mixture into hog casings and link. Place links on a broil pan and cook sausages in oven until tops of sausages are brown. In a large Dutch oven over medium heat on range, heat olive oil and add julienned vegetables to sauté.
