Skalitsa Banitsa Recipe – Now world recognition This is probably the most famous Bulgarian recipe bar shopska salad and with the pastry now bought in a ready to use form from shops is very simple to make. This particular recipe was given to me by my Bulgarian neighbour Rosa who is also local nursery schoolteacher. It is as far as I’m aware only local to my village Skalitsa which has in my totally unbiased opinion gives better results than the original National recipe. Hence the name ‘Skalitsa’ Banitsa
The salad is named after the people living in the Sofia area in Bulgaria (the shopi). It’s a great salad and easy to prepare.
Once again one of my boyfriend’s favourites. He never gets tired of these meatballs or of my cutlets and he often requests both at the same time. Grilling is also a nice option although you might want to put more beef or more bread so that the mixture gets thicker.

This is a recipe I have not tried yet but I found it in an old book about traditional Bulgarian cooking and it sounded great. I decided to share it so here it is. If you happen to try it, please share how it came out and what kind of cheese you used. By the way, I’m guessing at preparation and cooking times.
