Cheesy chimichurri rolls
Community member
"This simple number, slicked with a generous amount of tangy chimichurri, is inspired by Meera Sodha’s delicious bombay rolls from her cookbook “East”. Chimichurri is a bright, herbaceous sauce from Argentina that’s traditionally paired with grilled meats, but to be fair, works well with pretty much everything. Depending on who you ask, there are countless variations of it and this particular ratio of herbs and acidity just happens to be my favorite. Store any leftover chimichurri in the fridge for up to two weeks and don’t panic if it darkens overtime—this only means you’ve an extra flavorful condiment in your hands!"
