🇷🇴 Romania recipe
Frigarui
Frigarui are the Romanian answer to grilled skewers, a staple of summer cookouts and outdoor celebrations. Cubes of pork, sometimes alternated with bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms, are marinated in a robust mixture of garlic, wine, and herbs before being threaded onto skewers and charred over hot coals. The result is smoky, juicy, and deeply savory -- the kind of straightforward cooking that makes Romanian barbecue culture so beloved.
