Beef Tongue

Ingredients:

• 1beef tongue
• 1 carrot
• 1 rib celery
• 1 med onion
• 5 cloves garlic
  

Directions:

Take a large pot that accommodates the tongue, place all ingredient in and cover with water. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer, cover with lid and cook for 3 hours. Remove tongue and when cooled peel tough outer skin. You can eat it cold, or (what I prefer) fry it in a pan, I generally do not add any oil as it renders its own fat. Fry it until nice and crispy/brown on each side. I is one of my favorite dishes.
