Welcome to my kitchen - traditional bulgarian recipes from Botevo village


       For the lovers of the traditional meals here are two local dishes from Botevo village that you have to try: fried beans with eggs and chicken with peppers and garlic.


     Fried Beans with eggs : First you need to boil the beans in salty water. It's recommendable to change the water once or twice before you continue. You can add all kind of vegetables like peppers, onion, tomatoes, even carrots. Take a large pan, put some oil and when it's hot add one or two spoons of flour and paprika, keep siring and at the same time start adding from the beans' soup until you it's well mixed. Then you add all of the rest of the boiled beans. Finally when it's almost ready if you want add 3 or 4 eggs and leave it without stirring on low heat until they are cooked.


     Chicken with peppers and garlic: For the second dish you will need chicken. Cut the meat into small pieces and fry it in a pan. You can prepare the the red peppers in advance. Put them in the oven until they are well baked. Then you can can easily remove the peelings and the seeds. Cut them too into small pieces. At the end put together the fried chicken and the peppers together, add some chopped garlic and parsley, some oil and sаlt and stir. I am also adding tomato salsa and Bulgarian cheese :). Bon Appétit!

Camping in Greece

      For me one of the best places to go camping is Greece. It's not so far away from Bulgaria and there are many places where you can spend your vacation.

      Camping Kouyoni is a very nice place in the hart of Halkidiki. It's located 75 km southeast of Thessaloniki on the beach of Gerakini. You can take advantage of it's perfect location to visit some other nice places around.

      Here are some photos capturing the incredible view from the road just after the city of Nikiti.
