Pita Sirnica. Bosnia

June 2019 Buttery, flaky filo pastry, stuffed with a creamy, slightly salty mixture of cottage cheese, sour cream and egg, rolled, coiled and baked.  A greasy but tasty and very filling snack - I especially enjoy the texture of the coils. Find it at every bakery - meat and spinach are other commonly found fillings.

Romanian Papanasi

April 2020 Since we can't go out to explore the world at the moment, I have brought the world to me!  Papanasi, cottage cheese 'doughnuts', served with yogurt, berries and a dusting of icing sugar, make a delicious and unusual brunch.  Crispy and hot on the outside, soft and creamy in the middle, they have all the best parts of a doughnut, whilst being light and packed full of protein.  Enjoy!
