Fakten über: Lamb's fry
Inhalt nur auf Englisch verfügbar
Lamb's fry is lamb offal served as food, including the testicles, liver, sweetbreads, heart, kidneys, and sometimes the brain and abdominal fat—or some combination of these.
In Australia and New Zealand, lamb's fry is specifically the liver; in the United States, "lamb fries" (q.v.) are specifically the testicles. In the U.K. it was all offal, though recently testicle has become rare.
History
Walker's Hibernian Magazine mentions "breakfasts of nice stew'd lamb's fry" eaten on the day of Swanhop in 1786. In 1929, a Country Life cookery supplement described it as an "old Devon breakfast dish". Fanny Cradock wrote that it was once popular as a breakfast dish before World War II.
Preparation
Lamb's fry is typically sliced, breaded, and pan-fried, and served with bacon, onions and a gravy made with the juices. The oldest known published recipe of this type is from 1808.
Popularity
"Lamb's fry and bacon" was once very popular as pub food and still relatively popular in Australia as pub counter meals and as a breakfast dish. This meal is making a comeback in the form of a "slow food"-type dish.
