CROATIAN SPRING VEGETABLES STEW
There is very obvious Austrian influence in this meal. My grandmother used to prepare this side dish every spring, and I remember that, as a kid, I was thrilled every time I had this meal for lunch.

Steps:
- Cut carrots into cubes, and kohlrabi into sticks. Use only white parts from cauliflower.
- Put oil in a pan, add sugar and cook it until sugar becomes brown. Add peas, carrots, kohlrabi and cauliflower, water and salt into pot and cook until vegetable is soft (usually 15-20 min.).
- Stew must be sticky but not too much. When adding water do not put too much, just to cover the vegetables. You can also use kohlrabi leaves to add into stew, but not too much. Kohlrabi must be small, not bigger than tennis ball, otherwise it will be too hard with wooden parts inside which is not good. You can also add potatoe.

CROATIAN "COBANAC" STEW
"Cobanac" is kind of goulash sheep and cow-boy's used to eat while watching their herds. You eat it with a spoon, so the pieces inside has to be bite-size. It is traditional meal from Slavonia (eastern part of Croatia)and people from there are very proud of it. They have annual "Cobanac festival" where there is competition in making cobanac. They cook cobanac in large bronze pots on tripod over open fire. Of course, everyone will tell you that their stew is the best one. This is how I do it. (I know someone here on Zaar would be against horse meat, but, if you really want to enjoy the taste, use horse meat.)

NORTH CROATIAN GREEN PEAS STEW ("GRASAK CUSPAJZ")
This is very simple spring stew. It is recommended to use fresh green peas not canned. So, before starting to cook, remove peas from shuck. It is a boring job but must be done.
