From Carla's recipe blog:

" This is my grandfather, Octavio Saavedra's recipe. This easy to make dish reflects the Eastern cultures' influence on cuban cuisine. The balance between the sweet raisins and salty olives lends a deceptively complex marriage of flavours, more evocative of Indian cuisine."
