There's a dish popular all over former Yugoslavia that sounds similar to this, I mean the names sounds similar. It's also cooked with tomatoes, but it's basically something like a tomato risotto with courgettes, peppers and aubergine. I love the dish! Thanks for reminding me of it - I should post the recipe sometimes!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6123354642759073561.post-73199488245248053122008-04-05T10:26:00.000+01:002008-04-05T10:26:00.000+01:00Marie, it was the first time I cooked something fr...Marie, it was the first time I cooked something from it.

I'd be tempted to add a little more next time, not that you'd want it to be very strong, but maybe just a bit more.
