You can have these as little snacks, stuff them in pitas with some sort of yogurt-based sauce (some variation on tzatziki would be nice) or eat them with pasta and tomato sauce. Very versatile! Ajvar Relish is a great condiment - bright red from roasted peppers, and slightly sweet and sour, while subtly spicy. It's also really good to stir into créme fraîche for a quick sauce.

I love ajvar - had it for the first time in 1998 in Bosnia Herzegovina. But it comes in different heat-levels - I've accidentally bought a jar of spicy ajvar once, and could hardly finish it :)
Ajvar is omething new to me Anne, but I am positive it was the perfect addition to these meatballs.
