Begova Corba · Sarajevo

Begova corba, the Bey's soup, is a traditional Bosnian festive soup of chicken, carrot, parsley and okra, finished with sour cream and egg yolk.

Wikipedia traces begova corba to the Ottoman period and says it is associated with hospitality, served to guests at weddings and on Eid and Ramadan. The name comes from the Turkish bey, a gentleman of high standing, and Inat Kuca says it was cooked for high-ranking guests. Sarajevo's Carsija recipe app, presented by the Stari Grad municipality, includes a recipe for it.
