I have never heard of that lazy version. Here is how probably most Bosnian families would do it:
- Grind coffee beans as fine as you can, much finer than for espresso
- in the meantime, make sure to boil your water and then put it aside.
- heat up the džezva (turk: cezve) slowly for a few seconds (so that water that is poured in
does not cool down too quickly)
- take 9g of coffee powder per cup and put it into your džezva. You can vary the amount to your
likings. I take 18g of coffee for around 360ml of water.
- with the džezva still on the hot plate pour around 1/3 of the water slowly into the džezva.
The water turns into a foamy dark liquid. Gently adjust temperature so that the liquid is slowly
heated. This will make it rise due to the foam on top.
- Let it rise to about 2/3 of the džezva. Remove džezva from the plate, let the coffee set a
little (to about 1/2).
- Pour more water into the coffee, again to 2/3 of the džezva
- put džezva back on plate, heat it up and let the coffee rise to 1/1 of the džezva
- remove from plate, slowly fill with water until the level is back to 1/1 (foamy liquid is
setting again and will allow you to add more water)
Your coffee is ready to serve. Serve in fildžan or small cups.
