Sofrito (Greek Lamb Recipe)

By: Janet 
"This dish is quite different from any I've tried before and we like it very much. If you like vinegar and lamb, this is thick and delicious and worth trying. Beef may also be used and is just as good. We like to serve this on toasted garlic bread or in pita pockets."
