30 minutes

Green bean and onion salad with paprika is a bright and aromatic dish from sunny Bulgaria. It combines the freshness of greens, a slight tang from vinegar, and a spicy hint of paprika. Crunchy green beans, gently boiled, retain their firmness and rich flavor, while green onions add zest. Parsley gives the dish freshness, and vegetable oil harmoniously binds all the ingredients together. This salad is perfect as a light appetizer or a side to meat dishes. It's easy to prepare and has an amazingly rich taste. Thanks to the Bulgarian tradition of using paprika, it acquires a characteristic warm aroma that makes it even more appetizing. Such a salad is the ideal combination of simplicity and sophistication, embodying the spirit of Mediterranean cuisine.
