Bocadillo (Spain)

Bocadillo simply means 'snack' in Spanish, and it's an easy sandwich to master, as you simply need a baguette or Spanish-style bread and whichever toppings you prefer. Typically served cold, bocadillos may be filled with any of the following: omelettes, cold meats, cheese, vegetables, sausage, hot meats, fried or scrambled eggs, fish or sweet ingredients, like chocolate. It's a pretty inexpensive sandwich, so you can expect to find it all over Spain at cafés or tapas bars. Try this easy recipe with smoked ham, manchego cheese and pickled cherry peppers.
