A staple spread in the Balkans, Ajvar (pronounced eye-var) is traditionally made with fresh tomatoes, fire-roasted red bell peppers and sunflower oil. At Marco Polo, we add eggplant and garlic to our Hot Ajvar Red Pepper Spread to impart extra deep flavor. Smooth in texture and tangy in taste, Hot Ajvar is classically served on toast. Top with a poached or scrambled egg and grated cheese, or serve on a bagel, for a delicious twist on an every day brunch. Add while cooking or roasting to enhance the flavor profile of chicken and meat dishes. Or enjoy this healthy spread as a condiment with meat or vegetarian sausage.
