Maria and I have started a new channel — JUST MARIA
We need your support - please subscribe and don't forget to ring the bell!

For four years, you've been asking me the same two questions under Maria's videos: "Who films her?" and "Does she have her own channel?". Today I can finally answer both.

Maria and I have started a new channel — JUST MARIA. Only her films, but for the first time told OUT LOUD: a narrator's voice finally tells you what you've been watching in silence all these years. Who she is. How she really lives alone up there. Why she always cooks so much food. And who eats the second pizza.

We begin with the films you already love — retold with narration, like a series about one woman and one mountain. Brand-new films are coming too, and one day soon: an interview with Maria herself.

She still doesn't know how many of you love her. Go say hello — subscribe and leave her a comment. I'll make sure your words reach the mountain.

Hello, dear friends! 🌿🔥

Many of you asked about the food Maria cooked in the new episode, so we wanted to leave the recipe notes here in one place. This video had two simple campfire dishes, made in Maria’s quiet Carpathian style: warm, rustic, and without complicated measurements.

🎬 Watch the full video here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bGRu...

1. Crispy Lavash Pockets with Cheese & Sausage

Ingredients:

Thin flatbread / lavash
Hard yellow cheese, sliced
Sausages, sliced lengthwise
3 eggs, beaten
Fresh dill
Sunflower oil for frying
How Maria made it:
She placed cheese and sausage inside pieces of thin lavash, folded them into small pockets, dipped each one in beaten eggs, and fried them in hot oil over the campfire until golden and crispy.

The result is simple but so comforting: crispy outside, soft inside, with melted cheese and fresh dill on top.

2. Campfire Potatoes with Salo & Smoked Sausage

Ingredients:

Potatoes, peeled and sliced
Salo / pork fat / slab bacon
Smoked sausage or kielbasa
Onion
Garlic
Fresh dill and green onions
Salt
Boiled eggs, pickles, and bread for serving

How Maria made it: First, she slowly rendered the salo in a hot pan until it released its fat and became golden. Then she added onion, smoked sausage, and potatoes. The potatoes cooked in that smoky fat until soft and flavorful. At the end, she added fresh garlic, dill, and green onions.

Served with boiled eggs, pickles, and bread, it becomes a real mountain-style meal: simple, filling, and full of flavor.

A few answers from your comments

What kind of wrap was that?

It looked like lavash or a very similar thin flatbread. It is perfect for folding, frying, and holding melted cheese inside.

Can Maria show the ingredients more clearly next time?

Yes. We hear you. In future cooking episodes, we will try to show the ingredients and preparation more clearly so you can follow the recipes at home.

Why was cleaning the riverbank part of the video?

For Maria, the river is not just a beautiful place. It is part of home. Cleaning plastic and glass from nature is a small act of respect for the land, the water, and the animals that live there.

What recipe would you like Maria to cook next? Tell us in the comments.

🍽️ Need EASTER DINNER IDEAS? Here's what a family of 7 cooked for Easter — Just hands, fire, and love 👇

THE FULL MENU:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5Lon...

🍞 PASKA (Easter Bread)
15 eggs, flour, golden raisins. Hand-kneaded for 10+ minutes. Baked in a wood-fired oven at 570°F. Topped with meringue and hand-grated dark chocolate. 6 hours from dough to masterpiece.

🥩 SMOKED PORK RIBS & SHOULDER
Dry-cured with salt and garlic. Hung on hand-forged hooks in a wooden smokehouse. Smoked 12 hours over hardwood coals. Mahogany bark you can't get from any modern oven.

🥚 RED EASTER EGGS
Dyed using ONLY onion skins collected since autumn + boiling water. Zero chemicals. Rub with oil for a glossy shine. They last weeks without a fridge.

🎨 HAND-PAINTED EGGS
The kids paint each one. Every symbol has meaning — diamonds for harvest, spirals for eternity, stars for light.

🥗 MOUNTAIN SALAD
A mountain of green onions + cucumbers + tomatoes + sunflower oil. First fresh greens after the snow melts.

🥔 HERB POTATOES
Boiled with garden herbs. Made to soak up smoked meat fat. Simple. Perfect.

Plus: meatballs, bread, fruit compote, and one candle lighting the whole table 🕯️

3 days of cooking. 7 people. A tradition alive for centuries.

No talking. No music. Just fire, birdsong, and family.
