Though its name stems from the Turkish soğan dolması, which translates as stuffed onions, this dish is a part of traditional Bosnian cuisine. It consists of onion bulbs that are blanched and stuffed with a flavorful combination of minced meat, rice, various spices, and (optionally) onions and grated carrots.

When stuffed, the bulbs are layered and slowly cooked in the oven, usually in a small amount of water. The final addition is a layer of sour cream or a combination of flour and paprika, typically generously smeared on top. Sogan-dolma is a Bosnian classic, enjoyed throughout the country, although it is typically associated with the southern regions. 

Čimbur s mesom is a Bosnian dish consisting of ground meat and eggs. The meat is sautéed with onions, ground paprika, and (optionally) tomatoes or tomato sauce. After that, whole eggs are cracked on top of the meat, and they are then slowly baked until set.

Occasionally, a mixture of ground paprika and melted butter can be drizzled over the eggs. This traditional dish can be served as a filling breakfast or the main course. It is usually enjoyed with bread on the side. Čimbur s mesom is also known simply as čimbur, but it should not be mistaken with an egg-based dish that shares the same name.

Kalja is an old peasant dish originating from Bosnia, with variants of it popular in Serbia and the Lika area of Croatia. In the past, the dish was made with a combination of lamb or sheep meat and cabbage or any available vegetables. Nowadays, it's mostly prepared with veal or lamb, potatoes, cabbage, onions, carrots, garlic, and tomatoes.

The stew is simmered until the meat becomes tender. Kalja is traditionally served without side dishes, but it's often accompanied by a dollop of sour cream and a few slices of bread. The dish is especially comforting on cold winter days.
