Bosnian-style Bibimbap

Ingredients

While the original Bibimbap features a variety of Korean vegetables and sauces, Bosnian-style Bibimbap incorporates Bosnian ingredients and flavors. We substitute traditional Korean vegetables with locally available vegetables like bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots. Additionally, we infuse the dish with Bosnian spices such as paprika and cumin to add a distinct Bosnian twist. We alse have the original recipe for Bibimbap, so you can check it out.
