Garlic sauce for draniki is a fragrant condiment with a rich flavor that perfectly complements traditional Belarusian potato draniki. Its roots trace back to the rural cuisine of Belarus, where simple yet rich flavors are highly valued. Fried garlic reveals a deep, slightly sweet aroma, while ground red pepper adds spiciness, creating a harmonious blend with soft, crispy potatoes. This sauce not only enhances the taste of draniki but also pairs well with other dishes like lagman, shurpa, and meat appetizers. Its simplicity in preparation and accessible ingredients have made it popular in home cooking.
