Spice Up Your Life With this Argentinian Recipe
One of the favourite cooking methods in Argentina is, without a doubt, grilling. This style of cooking is derived from the original Argentinian Gaucho tradition of cooking fresh meat over a charcoal fire, a tradition which continues even today.
To add flavour and tenderise the meat, Argentines often marinate meats in Chimichurri. Food without Chimichurri just wouldn't be tolerated in Argentina especially grilled meat to which it adds an amazing flavour.
Why not try out this traditional recipe at your next barbecue event?
Argentine Chimichurri
