Chicken Bosnian Style
I grew up around my mom’s cooking. And I just recently found her cook book. This is one of my favorites and my boyfriend could not get enough!
Bosnian Ground Turkey Stuffed Bell Peppers
This is a yummy homey meal. This recipe usually use ground beef, however, I do not eat red meat so I use ground turkey and they come out lighter and less gready, and still delicious. You may prefer using ground beef.
Sarma – Bosnian Stuffed Cabbage Leaves
There are different versions of this recipe from all over the Balkans. You may be able to get sour cabbage from an Eastern European market; if not, you can boil the cabbage heads until soft enough to work with (the dish will taste slightly different – maybe add some vinegar to the broth). It is a very filling dish! Don’t worry about leftovers, they taste just fine reheated (use the stove, not the microwave)!
Bosnian Pita (phyllo pie) with Spinach Filling
This is one of the most delicious dishes I have ever come across. It is special to me because it is my husband’s favorite dish from his old country. My mother in law and his aunt, both from Bosnia, taught me how to make it, even though they do not speak much English. They even make their own dough, but making phyllo dough is very difficult and they assured me it is more than okay
Bolivian-Mexican Style Corn Pie
This recipe halves easily. “If you have a cast-iron skillet, you can make so many things in it for breakfast, lunch and dinner,” says Willis, author of “Basic to Brilliant Y’all” It’s a roasting pan. It’s a baking dish. It’s a skillet.” To me, the cast iron skillet is symbolic of the south. If you’re not crazy about allspice or cloves, leave them out, though it is original to the recipe.
