Parsley - 1 piece
Carrot - 1 piece
Onion - 1 head
Wheat Flour - 1 tablespoon
Raisins - 3.5 oz
Vegetable Oil - 2 tablespoons

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Place the well-washed fresh tongue in a pot, add the peeled, washed, and chopped roots, onion, and salt. Pour in hot water and, placing it on the heat, boil for 2–3 hours.

Step 2

After boiling, remove the tongue, rinse it with cold water, and immediately peel off the skin.

Step 3

Using the broth obtained from boiling the tongue, prepare the sauce. For this, lightly fry the tablespoon of flour with the same amount of oil, dilute with strained broth (1 1/4 cups), bring to a boil, add the sorted and washed raisins, and simmer for 5–10 minutes, then remove from heat, season with salt, add lemon juice, a piece of butter, and mix.

Step 4

When serving, slice the tongue thinly, place it on a platter, add a side dish (green peas, pasta, stewed cabbage, potato or pea puree), and then pour the prepared sauce over the tongue.
