About Pleskavica

Pleskavica is a traditional Serbian dish, often enjoyed across the Balkan region. This savory delight is essentially a large, seasoned meat patty made from ground beef, pork, or a combination of both. Spices such as paprika, garlic, and onions add depth to its flavor. Popularly served with flatbread, fresh vegetables, or creamy side sauces, Pleskavica can be a hearty meal. As a source of protein, it supports muscle repair and growth, but its nutritional value depends largely on preparation. When grilled, it can be a relatively low-fat option; however, variations with added fats or served alongside heavy accompaniments may increase calorie and saturated fat content. Pleskavica embodies Balkan culinary heritage and is often enjoyed as street food or a homemade comfort dish, showcasing traditional flavors that connect people to the region's cultural roots.
