Oh dear, I thought it was ready by now, hence the question. :shock:  
How long are you going to be starved yet? Never mind, as long as it's good, worth the wait.

I'm sorry I didn't see Munty's recipe before  :oops:  :oops:  :oops:
It's been in for an hr now, gas 4-5, covered in foil. hungrygirlfriend is in attendance and you know what that means, it means now so next time I'll cook it the Munty way.

It wasn't a whole heart, the side covered in paxo is the sliced side, what chambers there were I filled with stuffing. hardly any valves from what i could see, still, hopefully the foil will keep it moist, going to add more wine in a min.

Expect to eat it in the next hr.

turn it up if ya wana just add more fluid n it shoue be done in 30 mins on full  i always find gas dries food out more than electric anywys

it's coming along nicely

the meat was really nice, really tender. I don't think it needs any special treatment, apart from wine... i think the next time, i'll just treat it like regular beef. Stuffing it with paxo was a bad idea, i'll stuff it with coarse veg next time. gravy needs to be thin. i'll have it with spuds or mash next time, rather than rice. i overcooked the broccoli and carrots. i'll maybe add 1 clove of garlic next time, rather than 7. this is how we learn.

it was a complete mess. it was all eaten though  :oops:  :oops:  :cry:

the previos recipe was lambs heart .. my mistke they are small and cook fast  

[mushroom]

There was a lot of meat left over, now in the fridge. I'll make a beef stew out of the rest of it. The meat is very very lean, it seems the wine and the slow covered cooking took care of that. I can see why traditionally it's a peasant dish - that heart fed 2 people last night and there's enough meat there to serve another 2 meals for 2 people (6 meals in all) and it cost under 4 quid  :shock:

Im over 6ft gf is a foot smaller tho theres a lot of meat on the heart - I think maybe the butcher did me a deal, it was near the end of the day and they don't sell well these days because everyone knows meat comes on a polystyrene tray and is square or round  :x

heart is a very undermined meat many people wont even try it simply because of what it is.
are local farm shop give them away simpley because there is no customers to buy them.
i dont stuff mine but i do do stuffing with the meal.i cover mine in garlic and rosemary.i have also done them where i let them soak over night in red wine.
i love heart sandwiches the next day .
