Zavezanci is a traditional dish originating from the region of Slavonija-Baranja. This peasant dish consists of three main components – pasta-dumpling dough, the filling, and a spicy, paprika-enriched broth. The dough is made with a mixture of flour, warm water, eggs, salt, and oil or pork fat.

Once prepared, it's rolled and cut into rectangles that are filled with a mixture of pork fat, breadcrumbs, semolina, paprika powder, salt, and Vegeta condiment. The dough is then tied into a knot and cooked in a broth consisting of water, Vegeta, pork fat, onions, paprika, salt, and elongated red peppers.

Once the pasta-dumplings float to the top, the dish is ready to be served. Zavezanci are always served warm or hot.
