About me
Hi, I'm Emina from Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina. I adore cooking and I'm really into bosnian meals and recipes so feel free to ask me anything if you need some advice and help.

I'm also couchsurfer so if you ever decide to come to Sarajevo you can text me via couchsurfing.

- Cut the bottom parts of onions 1/4 inch and peel. -Boil them until soft, but not too soft. Rinse and let cool down. -Squeeze each one to get every single layer. You will be stuffing those layers. If slippery, use a clean kitchen towel to grip and squeeze. -Wash rice in plenty water and rinse. -Soak sumac in hot water for 15 minutes and drain. Save the water. -Heat butter in a frying pan. Add pastes, spices, and salt. Mix well and cook for 3-4 minutes. -Take the pan off the fire. Add ground meat, rice, and sumac. Mix well. -Stuff onions with the mix and place them in a broad pot. -Pour in sumac water. -After it starts boiling, simmer covered on low for half an hour. -Serve hot with crusty bread. We loved it, especially with yogurt.
