Chivito (sandwich)

Chivito is the national dish of Uruguay. It is a sandwich of sliced beefsteak (''churrasco''), mozzarella, ham, tomatoes, mayonnaise and black or green olives. A chivito commonly also includes bacon and fried or hard-boiled eggs. It is served in a bun, often accompanied by French-fried potatoes. Other ingredients, such as red beets, peas, grilled or pan-fried red peppers, and slices of cucumber, may be added.

In Argentine cuisine a similar sandwich is called ''lomito''. Provided by Wikipedia
