Stuffed and Roasted Ox Heart. One of the few offal's that my lovely wife will knowingly and willingly eat.
The young fella found half an Ox heart in the freezer and asked if we could have it for tea. Of course we can son.
We started by frying up a heap of Bacon, Onion, Spinach and Mushrooms, added a couple of diced garlic cloves, some Nutmeg and Cinnamon, a good dollop of salt and pepper and half a glass of red wine. Cooked it up until everything had reduced right down and most of the liquid had cooked off.
This takes about a half glass of red wine, for the chef.
Chucked the heart in a pan of hot beef lard and seared/browned it off before stuffing it with the spinach and bacon mix. This took around another half glass of red wine to accomplish.
We had the roasting dish warmed and primed with a bit more lard and dropped the Heart into the oven for around an hour at 125 degrees, Or about 2 glasses of red...
Close to the end of cooking we prepped a frypan full of, you guessed it, beef lard, and shallow fried some Agrias to accompany the main ingredient come tea time.
Heart out and allowed to rest for one more half glass of red wine before slicing and serving.
