Priprema

  1. Rinse the buckwheat under cold water and cook it in salted water. Simmer over medium heat for 15–20 minutes, until tender. Drain and set aside.
  2. In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add the zucchini, green, and red bell peppers. Lightly season with salt and sauté for 7–8 minutes, until the vegetables soften but remain slightly crisp. Transfer them to a plate and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add the finely chopped garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the prawns and cook for 2–3 minutes on each side, until they turn pink. Lightly season with salt.
  4. Return the sautéed vegetables to the pan with the prawns and add the cooked buckwheat, oregano, and sage. Stir everything well and briefly heat to allow the flavors to blend. Add more salt if needed.
  5. Serve warm, immediately after preparation. This dish is rich in flavors and perfectly balanced – crispy vegetables, juicy prawns, and the nutty texture of buckwheat create a harmonious experience in every bite.
