Fried beef brains

Description

The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. Beef brains, a type of offal, are considered a very nutritious delicacy. Thanks to the batter, the pieces turn out crispy on the outside and tender and soft inside. Fried beef brains go well with any side dish, but pair best with vegetables. My family especially enjoys this dish with green beans. I highly recommend giving it a try—it's delicious. Serve the dish warm.
