Writing: Uruguayan foodChivitos are are a very popular food in Uruguay. A ‘Chivito’ is a sandwich containing steak, ham, cheese, tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise. It can also have bacon, boiled eggs, or olives. Sometimes you can also have it with chicken instead of a steak. Most restaurants offer at least two or three different versions, which are called Comun, Canadiense and Al Plato. A Chivito Comun has steak, ham, mozzarella cheese, tomato, lettuce, and mayonnaise . A Chvito Canadiense has more ingredients, for example: a fried egg, or boiled egg ,palm hearts (cut in thin slices), onion slices, peppers , olives,mushrooms, pickles, and different sauces like ketchup, golf sauce, chopped parsley and garlic. ‘Chivito al plato’ is eaten on a dish, has no bread and consists on: beef with ham, mozzarella cheese, egg and bacon on top, accompanied with tomato, lettuce, and French fries. My favourite place to eat a Chivito is Chiviteria Marcos, a famous restaurant in Punta del Este.
RecipeIngredients
1 boneless rib steak, 1 pound, sliced horizontally into 4 thin steaks (you can ask the butcher to do this) Coarse salt 4 sandwich rolls 1/2 cup aioli Four 1/8-inch-thick slices pancetta 2 tablespoons olive oil 4 large eggs 4 slices boiled ham (about 4 ounces) 4 ounces queso blanco or Monterey Jack, sliced 1/4 inch thick 4 Boston lettuce leaves 2 tomatoes, sliced

2 Roasted Peppers
Preparation
Pound the steaks lightly with a meat mallet until they are evenly about 1/4 inch thick. Sprinkle with salt to taste. Split the rolls and spread aioli on both halves; set aside. Heat a chapa or a two-burner cast-iron griddle over medium-high heat. As it is heating, crisp the pancetta on it, turning once; set aside. When the chapa is hot enough that a drop of water sizzles on the surface, add the steaks and cook, without moving, for 2 minutes. Turn and cook for another minute, or until done to taste. Meanwhile heat the olive oil until it shimmers, then fry the eggs until the whites are cooked but the yolks are still runny. Place a steak on the bottom half of each of the rolls and top with a slice each of ham, cheese, and crisp pancetta and a fried egg. Cover the other halves with the lettuce, tomatoes, and roasted pepper, and close the sandwiches. Slice in half and serve.

Writing about a holiday
Model
Dear Chilli,I had a fantastic holiday in Uruguay. It was hot and the sea was green and lovely.I travelled by plane from London to Montevideo.I really enjoyed the flight. It was twelve hours long, but I didn’t sleep at all because I was so excited. During the flight I listened to music, watched a film and talked to the girl in the seat next to me.I stayed with my aunt and uncle in Montevideo. They invited me on a trip to a farm near the sea in Rocha. It was brilliant. On my last day there we went to Cabo Polonio, a small fishing village. It is full of young people. They also listened to reggae music!I didn’t get to bed until three o’clock in the morning!
See you soon! I hope your gigs are going well.
