Ingredients

Method

Tap a step once you've finished it.

  1. Cut the bread roll into even, finger-thick slices, and dip them quickly - just a few seconds - in milk, so they don't soak up too much liquid.
  2. Clean the veal brain thoroughly (peel off the membrane), then boil it in salted water for 5-8 minutes.
  3. Drain, remove any remaining bits of membrane, then chop it coarsely.
  4. Sweat the chopped onion in the lard until translucent, add the brain, and steam together for a few minutes, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  5. Let it cool slightly, then stir in 2 eggs and mix in thoroughly.
  6. Sandwich a layer of the brain filling between two of the milk-dipped bread slices.
  7. Dip the filled sandwiches in beaten egg, then in breadcrumbs.
  8. Fry both sides in hot lard until golden brown.
  9. Serve hot, on a separate plate, alongside the Creamy spinach stew.
