Patatnik

Patatnik is a dish originating from Bulgaria's Rhodope Mountains region. It is a flavorful combination of shredded potatoes and onions, seasoned with salt, pepper, and mint. Additional ingredients include sirene cheese, eggs, and various peppers. The origin of the name is derived from the local word patat, meaning potato. Although the dish is traditionally baked in an oven, it can also be fried or boiled, either rolled out in sheets or as a homogeneous mixture of ingredients.
