📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Krompiruša is a type of Bosnian pie called 'pita': potato, onion, and pepper are wrapped in thin pastry, coiled into a spiral, and baked. It rivals meat-filled burek in popularity, and since it has no meat it's also eaten on fasting days. It's served with sour cream or yogurt.

🌆 Where it's eaten: At the front of a pita shop in Sarajevo, golden spiral potato pies are lined up right in their big trays.
