Ol' Man's Kidneys image

Comfort food from my youth. Sunday breakfast at its best. Guaranteed to change your mind about kidneys. Thanks to my old man for the recipe. Best served with scrambled eggs on toast with grilled tomatoes and field mushrooms.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

8 fresh lamb kidneys, rinsed and outer membrane removed
1 ½ tablespoons butter
1 large onion, thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste
1 teaspoon mild curry powder
1 cup white wine, or as needed
2 teaspoons tomato paste, or to taste
2 ½ tablespoons heavy cream

Steps:

  • Make a slice the long way, partly through the back of each kidney (the side opposite the ducts), and spread the kidney, cut side down, onto a cutting board. With a sharp knife, slice as much meat off each side of the kidney as possible, leaving the duct "tree" intact. Discard the duct portion. Repeat with each kidney.
  • Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook and stir the onion, garlic, and curry powder until the onion is soft and translucent, 5 to 8 minutes. Pour about 1/4 cup of white wine into the onion mixture, turn the heat to low, and stir to scrape up and dissolve any brown bits of flavor from the bottom of the skillet. Place the kidneys into the skillet, and gently simmer until tender but not overcooked, about 10 minutes. Turn the kidneys over about halfway through cooking. As the wine reduces, continue to add more, about 1/4 to 1/3 cup at a time.
  • When the kidneys are no longer pink and the wine has reduced, stir in tomato paste until well combined. Serve hot with a dollop of cream drizzled over each serving, if desired.

This recipe was a waste of time. The kidneys were tough and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I followed the recipe exactly, but the kidneys came out tough and chewy. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This recipe was okay. The kidneys were a bit tough, and the sauce was a bit bland. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.
