''Tomato, pepper, eggplant...'' The ingredients of this sauce remind us of a Barış Manço song. Garlic, olive oil and other spices add flavor to the three essential ingredients. The result is the beautiful lutenitsa, which is dipped in bread and eaten. This sauce is prepared at the beginning of autumn in the Balkans, especially in Bulgaria. It is consumed with pleasure all winter long.

The original recipe contains an herb called "chubritsa". If you don't have this herb on hand, don't worry. It is quite possible to get support from our local spices to flavor the sauce. Let's tell a little secret. You can use it not only for breakfast, but also as red meat , chicken and pasta sauce, or even pizza sauce.

If Lutenitsa is ready, we are ready for pleasure.
