Bob

Beans. More specifically, white beans which have been slowly cooked in a clay pot with vegetables and herbs. The types and quantities of vegetables and herbs will vary, everyone has their own version, but there will usually be chopped onions, peppers, carrots and tomatoes. Bob is served in the pot with spearmint on top and is eaten as a side dish, often with sausage. ‘Sausage’ in Bulgarian is nadenitsa (наденица) and ‘with’ is c, so when combined the dish is: bob c nadenitsa, pronounced ‘Bob Snadenitsa’ which sounds like a reliable yet slightly bumbling veteran policeman in a crime novel.
