'Such' (Sač) - Traditional method for outdoor cooking
'Such' is traditional metal dish that is used for outdoor cooking in many Balkan countries, primarily in Bosnia. Its parts you can see below. A large amount of live coals is needed for this kind of slow cooking. Dish is filled, set on its posts above the coals, covered, ring placed on the lid and hot ash is placed on top. It should not be opened during the cooking, as it ensures preserving all aromas.

Ingredients:
4-5 tbs oil
Large cuts of lamb (or any other meat), with bones please
Potatoes, peeled
Other vegetables (optional)
salt and pepper
bay leaves
200 ml water ( or wine)
Method:
Season meat and vegetables, pour oil over it and mix to coat. Place meat first in the dish, then arrange potatoes around. Pour water over it, add bay leaves and place lid on top.
Set such over live coals (heat shouldn't be too strong), place ring on the top of lid and cover with hot ashes and small pieces of live coal. Let it cook for at least 2 1/2 hours. Let it cool slightly (uncovered) before serving.
Waiting for such...You can see on our faces that we were very hungry!
Cekanje da bude gotovo...Na licima nam se vidi da smo gladni!
Tradicionalno pečenje ispod sača
Sac je metalna posuda koja se koristi za pecenje u zaru. Njegove dijelove mozete vidjeti gore na slici. Nista nije tako ukusno kao obrok pripremljen na ovaj nacin. Bitno je pripremiti dosta zara prije pocetka kuhanja. Tokom pecenja, sac netreba otvarati, jer se na ovaj nacin osigurava zadrzavanje svih aroma i ukusa.
Potrebno:
4-5 K ulja
veliki komadi jagnjetine (ili drugo meso), sa kostima molim
krompir, oguljen
drugo povrce (opciono)
so i biber
lovorov list
2 dl vode (ili vina)
Nacin:
Zacinite meso i krompir, pospite ulje po tome i izmijesajte. Smjestite sve u sac (najprije meso, a krompir okolo), ubacite lovor i uspite vodu. Poklopite i smjestite iznad zara koji nesmije biti prejak. Postavite prsten na poklopac, zatim pospite vrelim pepelom i manjim komadicima zara. ostavite peci najmanje 2 1/2 sata. Prije sluzenja, ostavite neotklopljeno da se malo prohladi. Uzivajte!
