Chicken hearts and witchcraft!

Hello,

Do you guys eat chicken hearts? We do here in Bulgaria. And they are very VERY tasty!

I shared a recipe with an international friend of mine and got the question: “Are you a witch?”

Maybe if I tried I could be, who knows. Maybe I could find some magic in my blood!

I learned and tried this recipe while I was working as a waitress in the bulgarian tourist destination Ravda, which is by the sea. If you’re searching for a good family vacation place – look no more!

It’s basically a family resort. It has clear beaches and a decent nightlife that wont bother you if you’re there for a rest.

So, what I’m going to show you today is Chicken hearts Radomirsky style!

We have this thing in Bulgaria, called gyuvetch (looks like this), and you can cook basically everything in it. Like a ceramic hotpot, simply put, and it comes in different sizes. The word itself comes from turkish/ arabic.

You can let your creativity run wild with this one! And all the cooking is done outside of the gyuvetch itself for once. Thinking about it now, you cook everything and then put it in there, but oh well… we’ll get there.

To cook this dish you’ll need some chicken hearts (obviously), onions, tomato sauce, mushrooms, carrots, peppers and whatever else vegetables you enjoy eating. You can also season it however you like! I would suggest something salty, because when fried, the onion leaves a sweet taste. If you like sweet meals like me you may enjoy it. But when I cooked it, my mom didn’t like it because it was sweet. Being the traditionalist she is I got a: “It needs more pepper!” and I even put more spices than I usually would.

So.. you fry everything. First the hearts, then you add the onion and then all the other ingredients. It should become like stew. When it’s ready (the hearts should be soft, but I personally prefer them a little hard) you put them in the gyuvetch (or some other pot if you don’t have а ceramic one), break an egg on top and microwave for a minute or two to get what’s shown in the first picture!

And that’t it. You get a simple, fast tasty dinner!

If you’re all about aesthetics, you can decorate it with parsley or/and hot pepper.
