Pava’s Burek

Pava stayed up until three in the morning one night cutting up the meat into fine little minced portions and making burek (meat pie) for the freezer so we could have it to take with us on out trip together. We left at 5:30 in the morning, but she baked a batch the night before for our breakfast. What a sweetheart.

We stopped by the side of the road on the way to Mostar to have a bite. This is what you call a stand up picnic!

Then, our first morning back from the holiday, after the morning coffee (and the sljiva!) she had it baked for us again! This time I had some. They had it with yogurt. I had it with her homemade ajvar. Bliss.

See her little pieces of meat? She didn’t make her own pastry but it was still delicious.

Thank you, Pava, for yummy burek, our favourite!
