Pita (Bosnian phyllo family) · Sarajevo

In Sarajevo, pita is the family of filled phyllo pies other than burek: sirnica with cheese, zeljanica with spinach and krompirusa with potato.

Sarajevo's tourism board explains that burek in Sarajevo is always meat, so the cheese, spinach and potato pies are separate pitas called sirnica, zeljanica and krompirusa; Wikipedia gives the same names. Inat Kuca lists a homemade sirnica of cheese, jufke, eggs and sour cream, Nanina Kuhinja a zeljanica of spinach and feta in layered filo, and Kibe Mahala a meat or spinach pie rolled in a spiral for 11 KM.
