🥗Healthier: yellow bell peppers

💰Cheaper: canned roasted peppers

Canned peppers are convenient and often less expensive.

Roast red bell peppers and eggplant in a preheated oven at 200°C until charred, about 30-40 minutes.

Peel the roasted vegetables and place them in a blender with garlic, olive oil, vinegar, and salt.

Blend until smooth, adjusting seasoning as needed.

In a bowl, mix flour, yeast, sugar, and salt for the langos dough.

Warm water and milk slightly, then add to the dry ingredients and mix until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5-7 minutes.

Let the dough rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Divide the dough into portions and roll each into a flat circle.

Heat oil in a deep pan over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry each dough circle until golden brown on both sides, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt.

Serve the crispy langos warm with ajvar on the side.
