In Spain, you will often see cafes in the morning with various prepared bocadillos, or sandwiches, to enjoy with your morning coffee. One classic combination is lomo and queso, where the meat is from the loin of the pig. It’s a very simple sandwich, which people often enjoy without any added condiments. I’ve added a small bit of mayonnaise to the version below.
The following recipe makes 1 sandwich.
