This is another favorite Bulgarian Recipe of mine. The sweetness of the roasted red bell peppers and the tangy yogurt white sauce make such an excellent combination. Super easy to make and yet so delicious full with flavor and fragrance. You can also make this without the meat.
This is an extremely popular snack food here. Lately it is becoming less popular in cafeterias but it is still a favorite at almost any home. Feel free to alter the condiments but keep the pepper, the onions and the cumin. You could also grate some cheese on top, or add it to the meat mixture.
Got this recipe from Lorac on the Eastern European thread. It’s GREAT! Easy to make and relatively inexpensive since it is mostly vegetables. My husband, who is Serbian, loved it! Sorry some of the ingredients are in metric, but I just guessed on some of them as noted in the directions. I’m just guessing on the servings since it made quite a large pot of stew. Enjoy!
This recipe halves easily. “If you have a cast-iron skillet, you can make so many things in it for breakfast, lunch and dinner,” says Willis, author of “Basic to Brilliant Y’all” It’s a roasting pan. It’s a baking dish. It’s a skillet.” To me, the cast iron skillet is symbolic of the south. If you’re not crazy about allspice or cloves, leave them out, though it is original to the recipe.
A sweet and spicy stew. The original was from an Eat Low Fat digest way back in the early 90s. Heat Scale: Medium. Sweet-heat. Serve to guests with a salad and a slaw; chilled fruit and a little corn pudding. Source: Chile Pepper Magazine Presents “Hot and Spicy Latin Dishes” a collection.
