Belolučene paprike can sometimes be enriched with roasted aubergines. The salad is served as an appetizer or a side dish. It can also be consumed as a main dish when served with white cheese and a few slices of bread that are typically dipped in the salad juices.
Srpska salata (lit. Serbian salad) is essentially a variation on the famous Bulgarian shopska salad. Shopska salad is made with tomatoes, cucumbers, raw or roasted peppers, onions, and salty cheese. Srpska salata is almost exactly the same, but it omits the cheese from the combination.
The vegetables are mixed together, then seasoned with salt and pepper and drizzled with oil and vinegar before consumption. This salad is especially popular in summer due to its refreshing flavors.
