Čalabrca

Čalabrca is a simple Serbian dish made with phyllo pastry, oil, milk, and kajmak (clotted cream). A spoonful of lard or oil is dropped into boiling water. Dried phyllo pastry is torn into pieces, and the pot of boiling water with oil is poured over them, ideally in an earthenware pot. The concoction is shortly cooked, taken off the flames, then combined with milk and kajmak. The dish is typically served as an appetizer, and the name is derived from the colloquial word čalabrcnuti, meaning to nibble.
