Bosnian Cevapi Kebab

These small, grilled sausages are often served with flatbread and are a staple at gatherings and celebrations. Traditionally enjoyed with onions and a dollop of sour cream, cevapi reflects the region's communal dining culture. Today, variations exist across countries, with each region adding its own twist to this flavorful dish.
