This week is all about global cuisine. Usually there would be a set of regulations for any given theme, but this time Valli was so lenient and asked us to make any three dishes from around the world excluding USA and India. First I chose to make three breads, but since I couldn’t make all the dishes for Sruti within time, I opted for a more easier theme, Eggs. As I am having eggs daily and looking for interesting recipes, it would be easier for me to finish it off without depending on others. So you will see three egg recipes from around the world this week. The first one is a delicious Bulgarian breakfast or lunch – Mish Mash.
This is a really famous recipe throughout Bulgaria and each house has its own version. The main attraction of this recipe is the addition of Bulgarian white cheese sirene. As sirene is not available in other countries, most of the authors recommend feta instead. Looking at sirene’s pictures, I felt that paneer could be a ice substitute for it. I usually make a simple version of paneer and eggs for hubby daily. This mish mash was slightly different with the addition of roasted bell peppers and garlic. I made this for my lunch one day and totally loved that roasted pepper flavour in it. Also most of the recipes used different coloured peppers to make mish mash colourful but as I had only green peppers, I added that. The name mish mash means confusion or mess in the dictionary, but this one is a delicious mess. Do try it.

Wow, Bulgarian cheese omelette looks absolutely incredible, am sure a bowl of Mish mash will definitely fill some hungry tummies easily.
Addition of paneer is so cool. I normally prefer no cheese omelette but would not mind paneer. Will try this soon.
This recipe sounds very interesting… considering that it is much more than a normal egg and paneer burji… Must try this!
Love your take on this recipe Gayathri. Using paneer is such a great idea and this looks amazing.
This mish mash ia a variation of our egg bhurji. Addition of paneer and smoked bell pepper would certainly lift the taste of it
Very interesting one for egg lovers.
with both eggs and paneer this is a protein packed way to start the day! I would love this breakfast!
This is such a flavorful version of scrambled egg and definitely something that fits our Indian taste buds. I am looking for more ways to incorporate eggs in my diet for protein intake and I am bookmarking this recipe.
Cheesy Omelette with paneer looks soo good. Nice and healthy
That is such a yummy protein packed breakfast from Bulgaria. It looks colorful, hearty and absolutely delicious.
this is my kind of egg recipe. I love egg scrabmled like this will all veggies like onion, tomato and bell peppers. Adding paneer to it surely give extra flavor and texture. Loved it.
Sounds like an upgraded version of the humble burji! and it must have tasted awesome with all those other ingredients going in..fantastic choice.
