Prekmaš

Prekmaš is a traditional peasant dish originating from the Kamnik area. This simple dish is made with a combination of ocvirki (a type of pork cracklings), apples, beans, and salt. The cracklings are lightly fried in a pot and mixed with apple cubes. The mixture is cooked for a few minutes until the apples become soft, and it's then mixed with boiled beans. The dish is cooked for a bit longer until the apples are very soft and mushy, and prekmaš is then seasoned with salt to taste before it's served. In the past, the dish was typical for the whole Alpine region's rural countryside.
