Jon Rahm plans to treat his fellow Masters champions to a taste of home — Spain — as he unveiled the Champions Dinner menu Tuesday.

The meal honoring the defending winner is set for April 9 at the Augusta National clubhouse.

Teeing off with tapas is a great way to start, and the hits keep coming with a Basque-themed spread.

Rahm is from the northern Spanish Basque region and offers up a selection of food — including “Mama Rahm’s classic lentil stew” — inspired by his grandmother and restaurateur/chef Jose Andres, he told reporters.

“(Andres) called my grandma for the recipe,” he said. “If somebody doesn’t like it, please just don’t tell me. Don’t tell anyone, actually. It means a little bit too much to me to hear it.”

Among the treats also on the menu: Basque chorizo, a Spanish omelet and Iberian ham.
