Steps

Read instructions and get ready to cook

1
Roast the peppers

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Place whole red peppers on a baking sheet and roast for 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and blistered.

2
Roast the eggplants

Cut eggplants in half lengthwise and place them cut-side down on another baking sheet. Roast for 30-35 minutes until soft and tender.

3
Steam the roasted vegetables

Transfer the roasted peppers and eggplants to a large bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap. Let them steam for 10-15 minutes to loosen the skins.

4
Peel and chop the vegetables

Once cooled, peel the skin off the peppers and eggplants. Remove the seeds and stems from the peppers. Roughly chop the peeled vegetables.

5
Mince the garlic

Peel and mince the garlic cloves.

6
Combine ingredients

In a food processor, combine the chopped peppers, eggplants, minced garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and salt. Pulse until the mixture reaches your desired consistency (smooth or slightly chunky).

7
Serve and enjoy

Transfer the Pindjur to a serving bowl. Serve with bread, crackers, or vegetables for dipping. Enjoy this flavorful Balkan spread!
