Braised Calfs Heart Recipes

Steps:

• Wash the heart and remove any fat and arteries. Slice the heart in half, then slice it into 1/2 inch thick slices.
• Dredge heart in flour and season with salt and pepper.
• Heat the butter in large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the heart slices and cook for 30 to 45 seconds per side.
• Stir in the onion, carrots, potatoes, thyme, beef broth and wine. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 1 hour. Serve.

Steps:

• Put 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium to large skillet over medium heat. When butter has melted and foam subsided, add romaine hearts, cut side down, and cook, turning once or twice, until they begin to brown on the edges, about 5 minutes.
• Add stock, carrot and some salt and pepper. Cover and cook over lowest possible heat, turning occasionally, until lettuce and carrots are very tender, about 20 minutes. Uncover and turn heat up a bit to reduce any remaining liquid; add remaining tablespoon of butter and gently turn vegetables to coat. Drizzle with lemon juice.

Steps:

• Slice liver in small, thin pieces. Brown the onions in shortening. Stir in the paprika and tomato paste. Add the liver. Cover and simmer over a low flame for 15 minutes, or until the liver is done. Add salt just before serving.

Steps:

• Trim any fat off the heart. Use a pair of kitchen scissors to cut off any large pieces of the connective tissue around the top of the meat.
• Roll into a roast form and tie with string.
• Brown in the oil on all sides.
• Put in a dutch oven and add the onion, cut into about 8 pieces, and all the other ingredients, except the bread crumbs.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 4 hours, turning every hour.
• After 2 hours, add the bread crumbs.
• When done, remove heart and use an immersion blender or regular blender to smooth the gravy. If desired, you can thicken the gravy some more with a water and flour mixture, bringing it to the boil.
• Slice the heart lengthwise into 1/4" slices.
