Pispili is a traditional Albanian cornbread with leeks that is often served as a side dish or snack.

Here's a
recipe for making Pispili:

Ingredients:

2 cups yellow cornmeal

1 cup all-purpose flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 cups buttermilk

3 large eggs

1 large leek, thinly sliced

1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x13 inch baking dish.

In a large bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.

In another large bowl, whisk together the melted butter, buttermilk, and eggs.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and mix until fully combined.

Fold in the sliced leek and crumbled feta cheese.

Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish and bake for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted
into the center comes out clean.
Let the Pispili cool for a few minutes before slicing and serving.

Enjoy your delicious Pispili!

Tips:

If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to
1 cup of milk and letting it sit for 5 minutes.

You can also add other ingredients to the Pispili, such as chopped herbs, diced tomatoes, or grated
cheese, to customize the flavor.

For a crispy crust, you can sprinkle some cornmeal on top of the batter before baking.

Leftover Pispili can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just reheat in the
oven or microwave before serving.
