Ajvar (Macedonian and Serbian Cyrillic: ajвар; pronounced [ǎj.ʋaːr]) is a type of relish made principally from red bell peppers with garlic. It may also contain eggplant and chili peppers. Ajvar originates in the Serbian cuisine and was therefore long known as Serbian salad or Serbian vegetable caviar. It became a popular salad (side dish) throughout Yugoslavia after World War II and is nowadays popular in the Balkans.
