Hello, and welcome to part two of my discussion about Balkan Food with the incredible Irina Janakievska!
On this second part of our discussion -we pick up from where we left- we talk about the top five must try dishes of the region, that anyone who loves food should try. Foods from the heart of the Balkans.
Such as cevapi, ajvar, dolma/ sarma, bourek, and tres leches revani! Yes....Lets find out why....
I'm interviewing the award winning (James Beard awards on the International Category) and writer and recipe developer Irina Janakievska, author of the book "The Balkan Kitchen, Recipes and Stories from the Heart of the Balkans". She has also won the British Library Food Season Narrative Cookery Book Award (2025) and a Special Award at the Gourmand World Cookbook Awards (2024).
The book was shortlisted for the Jane Grigson Trust Award (2023) and the Fortnum & Mason Debut Cookery Book Award (2025).
She has featured on BBC Woman's Hour, BBC Radio London and Times Radio discussing Balkan cuisine. She lives in south London with her husband and young son, cooking, researching and writing about Balkan history, food culture and culinary traditions, and where I went to chat about all things Balkan. plus tasting some delicious traditional home made specialities!
