Pljeskavica is a traditional Montenegrin dish made from a mixture of ground beef, onions, and spices. The beef is usually mixed with salt, pepper, garlic, and other spices, formed into a patty, and then grilled over a charcoal fire. It is usually served with a side of fries, salad, and ajvar (a type of red pepper spread).
