Instructions

  1. Chill the meat for 20 minutes to make it easier to slice, then cut it into thin strips across the grain.
  2. Finely slice the onion and place it in a bowl with the lemon juice and a pinch of salt to soften for 10 minutes.
  3. Cut the tomato into very small dice if you are using it.
  4. Open the rolls along one side without cutting them completely, then spread mayonnaise inside.
  5. Fill each roll with strips of meat, drained onion, tomato and a pinch of pepper.
  6. Drizzle with a little oil and a few drops of lemon, then close and serve straight away.

Variations and tips

Vegetable version. Add finely sliced lettuce or celery for extra freshness.

Safety note. Raw meat must be very fresh, butcher-quality, and eaten the same day.
