Chopped “fried” salad with roasted peppers and beans
Of all the delicacies, I love beans and roasted red peppers the most. And both together – you get a dish just to lick your fingers. This is a salad recipe (maybe an appetizer) and I present it to you the way mom prepares it. The idea is not just to mix roasted peppers with boiled beans. There are some tricks that make it far tastier – first chop and then “fry” with hot oil. Try it and you will see what I am talking about… Here is the recipe:

Roasted pumpkin (bark up)
The recipe for roasted pumpkin is an integral part of the Bulgarian cuisine, the Bulgarian spirit and lifestyle, as well as the Bulgarian literature (remember Dushko Dobrodushkov by Elin Pelin, the archivist at the district government, who brings for signature papers to the house of the Governor…) It’s very easy to prepare, but so delicious! And now is the pumpkin season. We at home, following the strict instructions of my mom, cook it with the bark up. Thus the pumpkin is roasted very well, does not burn and does not get dry, but very soft, like a cream, the sugar syrup from the bottom of the baking pan is soaked…
