Beef Tongue with Mushrooms, Tomato and Sherry

Tender sliced beef tongue reheated in an onion, mushroom, tomato and sherry sauce.

Method

Steps

  1. Step 1

    For the proposed tomato sauce, soften the onion in olive oil for 5 minutes; add garlic for 30 seconds, then tomato, salt, pepper and paprika. Simmer uncovered 15–20 minutes until spoonable, adding a little water only if it catches. Measure about 240 mL for the dish.

  2. Step 2

    Simmer the tongue gently in salted water until a knife enters it readily, roughly 2–3 hours depending on size. Peel while warm and slice thinly; keep refrigerated if prepared ahead.

  3. Step 3

    Melt butter, soften the second onion and garlic, then brown flour lightly. Whisk in water and the prepared tomato sauce; add mushrooms, lemon, salt and pepper and simmer until mushrooms are cooked.

  4. Step 4

    Add sliced tongue and sherry; simmer about 10 minutes until tongue is thoroughly hot. Serve with baked macaroni separately if desired.
