Lakror
Lakror is a traditional Albanian dish, often classified as a type of pie. It is particularly popular in southern regions of the country, but can be found throughout Albania and in areas with significant Albanian populations.
Ingredients and Preparation
The primary ingredients in Lakror are phyllo dough, eggs, and a filling which can vary based on regional preferences and available ingredients. Common fillings include spinach, leeks, and cheese, though meat fillings are also used.
To prepare Lakror, the phyllo dough is layered in a pan, with the chosen filling spread between each layer. The top layer of dough is then scored in a diamond pattern, and the entire dish is brushed with beaten egg before being baked until golden brown.
Variations
While the basic preparation of Lakror remains consistent, there are numerous regional variations. In the southern region of Labëria, for example, it is common to use a mixture of spinach and feta cheese as the filling. In other regions, a mixture of leeks and cottage cheese may be used.
Cultural Significance
Lakror is often served during special occasions and is a staple during traditional Albanian holidays such as New Year's Day and Easter. It is also a common dish in everyday Albanian cuisine, and can be served as a main course or as a side dish.
