Cooking with Ajvar

Ajvar, a relish made from red bell peppers, eggplant, garlic and chili peppers is mostly popular in the Balkans. I found how how delicious it is through Food Safari, an Australian food documentary.

Here are two recipes that I use ajvar in:

Bulgur pilav
-3 tomatoes
-1 onion
-1 garlic
- bulgur
- chicken broth
- some meat (optional)
- olive oil/salt/pepper/parsley
- 2 spoons of ajvar


Hungarian Goulash (my own version)
- beef
- onion, carrots, potatoes, large red paprika
- bayleaf/garlic/ginger/salt/pepper
- beef broth
- some spoons of ajvar
