This is the fifth of a series of ten films about nine grill recipes from nine different countries.

With summer in the air, grilling is upmost on our minds, and what better time to be dusting off the barbecue and enjoying an open fire with a cold one.

The journey is accompanied by poems of places and countries to introduce each of the recipes, leaving Chef Stefan Kraus to bring across the simplicity of the dishes.

#5/10 TASTE OF ARGENTINA

A piece of Argentina for home: Flat Iron Steak. Sweet potatoes. Avocado. Chimichurri. For connoisseurs of South American cuisine.

Buen provecho!

I turn my face sunward

Wind blows golden sand: 

A gold mask

Scorches, cools, dazzles, 

In deep shadows hides

I walk, turn my face toward buildings, 

Parks, the sea in the distance

Eyes passing by

I caress hairs, 

Perfect bodies underneath flowers

A sailor salutes, 

Girls kiss, 

Buenos Aires grows in eyes

Of a blind poet, multiplies

I love

But I’m not

Not even like this tree

For lovers’ names to be carved onto me 

Aleksandar Obradovic, A ghost of Buenos Aires
