Čevapčiči – Skinless Sausage

“Čevapčiči” is an absolutely irresistible type of skinless sausage that, despite its origins in the Balkans, has been wholeheartedly embraced and adapted by both Czech and Slovak cuisines, making it a popular dish in both countries. This specialty can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, baking in the oven, or pan-frying, offering a versatile approach to its preparation. In the Czech Republic and Slovakia, it is commonly served with potatoes in various forms, but it can also be enjoyed as a hearty filling for sandwiches, providing a delicious and satisfying meal option.

Note: not suitable for vegetarians.
