FILET MIGNON IN SOUR CHERRY SAUCE - LUNGIC/BIFTEK U UMAKU S VISNJAMA

Place of origin: Our recipe

Every autumn I end up with a lot of sour cherries that were used for making our own homemade cherry brandy. They're usually used in different cakes that I like to call "drunken cakes" as cherries contain some amount of alcohol. :-) This year I wanted to try something new so I thought of a sour cherry sauce. I've looked up a recipe on the internet, found several ones but none was exactly to my liking so I combined them all and adjusted the taste along the way as I didn't like the original result. It turned out pretty well and we liked it a lot. Have made it later with "normal" cherries from the can so using "drunken" cherries is not necessary. ;-) :-D

BUNS WITH POTATO, CARROT & MEAT FILLING - PECIVA PUNJENA KRUMPIROM, MRKVOM I MESOM

Place of origin: Our recipe

I've made these tasty little buns for one hiking trip. I was thinking what to make that will be easy to carry around and will not require cutlery. We were also craving for bread but standard sandwiches were not the option - too boring. ;-) So I thought of making stuffed buns, just like steamed buns, but baked and with ingredients I've had in the fridge. Turned out delicious. :-D 

MEAT IN SAUCE - MESO U SAFTU

Place of origin: Croatia (mum's recipe)

One simple dish that my mum used to make very often. It doesn’t have any special name and she has always referred to it as “meat in sauce”. You need just a few simple ingredients to have a tasty meal.
