Peppers with cottage cheese

Peppers stuffed with fresh cottage cheese, a simple but very typical dish for the area.

Speca me gjizë is a traditional Albanian dish of baked peppers filled with gjizë, a fresh, mildly tangy curd cheese similar in texture to ricotta or cottage cheese. It is widely enjoyed as a light main course, side dish, or appetizer and showcases the central role of peppers, olive oil, and fresh dairy in Albanian cooking.
