Ingredients
 

  • 100 g Walnuts
  • 200 g Bulgarian sheep cheese
  • 3 tbsp Ajvar - spicy
  • 2 Garlic cloves
  • Olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Roughly chop the walnuts and roast them well in a pan for approx. 4 - 5, then immediately remove them from the pan and let them cool down a little, then grind them finely with an electric chopper.
  • Crumble the sheep's cheese finely in a bowl, add a little olive oil and mash well with a fork to a homogeneous mass, possibly add a little oil. Now add the ajvar and work in well. Now work in the ground nuts.
  • Now grate the two cloves of garlic finely and work them in as well. If necessary, add a little ajvar to taste, depending on how spicy you like it. I didn't need salt and pepper, as the ajvar and the sheep's cheese brought enough of it.
  • Pour into a serving vessel and let it steep in the refrigerator - it will keep for about 1 week.
