Pindjur orpinjur orpinđur (Serbo-Croatian:pinđur /пинђур;Bulgarian:пинджур,romanized: pindzhur;Macedonian:пинџур,romanized: pindžur;Albanian:pinxhur), is arelish form and is commonly used as a summer spread. Pindjur is commonly prepared inBosnia and Herzegovina,Croatia,Bulgaria,Serbia andNorth Macedonia.
The traditional ingredients includered bell peppers,tomatoes,garlic,vegetable oil,salt, and ofteneggplant. Pindjur is similar toajvar, but the latter is smoother, usually has a stronger taste, and is rarely made with eggplant. In some regions the words are used interchangeably.
The creation of this traditional relish is a rather long process which involves baking some of the ingredients for hours, as well as roasting the peppers and peeling them.
