Kraška jota

Kraška jota is a traditional thick soup or stew originating from the Karst area. It's usually made with a combination of sauerkraut, sour turnip, pork ribs, beans, pork sausages, potatoes, stock, onions, garlic, olive oil, paprika, black pepper, salt, thyme, and marjoram. The garlic and onions are sautéed in oil, and the sausage, stock, potatoes, and herbs are then added to the pot. After a few minutes of cooking, sauerkraut and sour turnip are added to the mix, followed by the beans, salt, pepper, and paprika. Once done, this hearty dish is served warm in deep bowls. It's recommended to serve the stew with a piece of fresh bread on the side.
