Specialty:Bosnian food
Favorite food:Potato pita
Time in the kitchen:Since she was 12. She learned from her mother.
Sunija Mustafic doesn’t measure her ingredients while making pita, but this recipe, adapted from a few Internet versions, is Mustafic-approved. Vegeta seasoning is available at Swensen’s and European food stores in Twin Falls. If you can’t find it, substitute seasoning salt or plain salt and pepper.
Not a fan of beef?There are several other fillings suitable for pita. Try sauteed spinach with feta, cottage cheese with egg, chicken with mushroom, or cubed potatoes and onions.
If the dough intimidates you, substitute phyllo dough, which can be found in most grocers’ freezer sections.
For the dough:
4 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons salt
2 to 2 1/2 cups warm water
For the filling:
1 pound ground beef
1 onion, chopped
Vegeta seasonin
