Tender lamb sweetbreads are cleaned, then sautéed in a skillet with garlic and peppers. This elegant offal dish is popular as a meze or a hot appetizer.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Parboil the sweetbreads

15 min

Parboil the cleaned sweetbreads in boiling water for 10 minutes, then transfer them to ice water. Remove the membrane and cut them into small pieces.

2

Sauté the onion and pepper

5 min

Melt the butter in a skillet. Sauté the chopped onion and green pepper until softened, then add the crushed garlic and stir until fragrant.

3

Sauté the sweetbreads

10 min

Add the sweetbread pieces and sauté over high heat until the edges are browned. Season with Turkish red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper. Do not overcook or they will become tough. Finish with a drizzle of lemon juice and serve hot.

Reminder

Important: Parboil the sweetbreads and remove their membrane before sautéing to soften their texture and give them a clean flavor. Sauté them briefly over high heat; overcooking will make them tough. Cook offal thoroughly. This recipe contains no nuts or gluten. Allergens: contains milk and dairy products. Check packaged ingredient labels for other allergens.

Dondurucuda saklanabilir mi, yoksa taze mi tüketilmeli? Bu miktar kaç kişilik oluyor, biraz belirsiz kaldı?

Belirtilen süreden 15 dakika sonra hâlâ hamurumsuydu, biraz daha pişirmem gerekti.

Tarifte yazan sıcaklık bende biraz yüksek geldi, kısarak denedim.
