Homemade Bulgarian lyutenitsa for the winter - how to cook. Delicious recipe made from peppers and tomatoes.
Lyutenitsa is a dish from Bulgarian cuisine. It got its name from the Bulgarian word “fiercely”, that is, very sharply. This is how it is because of the hot pepper. Bulgarians prepare lyutenitsa not in the house, but in the yard, in large containers. You cannot eat it right away; the dish must sit for at least several weeks.
For 5 kg of sweet red pepper we take 2-3 pods of hot pepper, 7-8 pcs. tomatoes, 10-15 g garlic, 20 g celery, salt and sugar to taste, 200 ml sunflower oil.
How to prepare lyutenitsa for the winter - step by step.
Wash the tomatoes, fleshy red sweet and bitter peppers, remove the seeds and stalks from the peppers, cut them into pieces, put them in a saucepan, add a little water to the vegetables and cook until they become soft. You can also bake the peppers in the oven.
