Djuvec rice is a traditional Balkan dish that immediately won me over! The combination of rice and fresh vegetables makes it not only incredibly delicious but also wonderfully uncomplicated. It's especially widespread and popular in Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia, and Macedonia. A big advantage of this recipe: everything cooks in a single pan, without having to cook the rice beforehand. Simple, aromatic, and perfect for any occasion!
