Stewed ventricles with vegetables
– 800 g of chicken ventricles; – 4 medium onions; – 1 medium carrot; – salt, pepper, favorite spices; – vegetable oil.

After removing the excess from the navels, you should thoroughly rinse them and cut each ventricle into several parts, then rinse everything again in water.
Now you can start quenching the ventricles. Well washed, they need to be laid out in a dry frying pan to evaporate excess moisture.
It’s time to add vegetable oil: you need to pour in a small amount, just for frying. Onions should be peeled and finely chopped, added to the ventricles. After a couple of minutes, add the carrots grated on a coarse grater here. After the vegetables have become soft, pour a glass of water into the total mass.
Next, reduce the heat and leave to simmer. Since the stomach of a chicken is quite dense in structure due to the fact that you have to digest coarse food, stewing can take up to 2 hours in time. The dish can be prepared faster if the birds from which these ventricles were extracted were young. The readiness is determined by the taste, the navels should be soft and tender.
Add salt, pepper and your favorite spices at the end of the process along with your favorite seasonings. As a side dish, you can make mashed potatoes, boil rice or a river.
