A hearty stew, locro is a national dish traditionally served on May 25, the date marking Argentina's May Revolution.

Made from white corn, beef or pork, tripe and red chorizo, as well as other vegetables including white beans, squash and pumpkin, and seasoned with cumin and bay leaf, this tasty meal in a bowl is an ideal winter warmer.

It can be ramped up with a dash of quiquirimichi, a hot salsa made from paprika, spring onion and chili.

Also worth a trying, carbonada is a similar dish that includes sweetcorn that's served inside a baked, seasoned pumpkin.
