The Serranito is a typical sandwich of Andalusian cuisine, especially that of Seville. It is believed to have originated in some bars in the neighbourhoods of Cerro del Águila and Juan XII in 1970, but it was a decade later when José Luis Cabeza Hernández patented the name Serranito and opened a restaurant in Seville with the same name. Thus, it became its signature tapa and its success caused it to spread to the rest of the provinces of Andalusia.
This famous “sandwich of the south” owes its recognition to an infallible combination: pork loin, Serrano ham and fried green pepper, plus French fries as a side dish. It can also be completed with chicken and tomato slices, French omelette, aioli, mojo… A quick lunch or dinner that, accompanied with French fries, becomes the perfect option.
