    Ingredients: (4 servings)

    Sheep hearts, 4

    Mushrooms, 250 grams

    Cheddar cheese, 50 grams

    Medium carrot, one

    Medium onion, one

    Herbs (parsley, tarragon, dill, mint), 100 grams
    butter, 100 grams

    Cooking oil

    Salt

    Black pepper

    Directions:
    Bring some water to boil. Add sheep hearts and allow them to turn whitish in color. Remove any blood with the tip of a knife, then wash and dry the hearts. Fry in oil over medium heat on all sides for a few minutes.

    Peel and thinly slice the onion. Wash and peel the carrot, then cut into thin, round slices. Wash and finely chop the herbs.

    Add onion, carrot, herbs, salt, and black pepper to hearts. Follow with a cup of hot water and cook over low heat for about 40 minutes. A bit of juice should be left when cooking is over. Allow the hearts to cool.

    Cut hearts length-wise taking care not to separate the two parts. Wash mushrooms and slice. Fry mushrooms in butter for about 10 minutes, while adding some salt and black pepper. Add mushrooms to the sauce prepared earlier and mix well.

    Pour some of this sauce inside each heart and over them. Close the hearts to return them to original shape. Sprinkle grated cheddar cheese on top and serve with Iranian or middle-western bread.

      400 grams ground lamb or beef

      100 grams of long-grain or basmati rice

      2 medium onions, finely chopped

      Cooking oil

      2-3 teaspoons of tomato paste

      Fresh lime juice, 3-4 teaspoons

      Sugar, 2-3 teaspoons

      Salt

      Black pepper

      1/2 cup parsley, finely chopped

      1/3 cup garlic chives, finely chopped

      1/3 cup tarragon, finely chopped (optional)

      Directions:
      Fry onions in cooking oil over medium heat until golden. Add ground meat and fry further until meat changes color. Add 1/2 cup water, salt, pepper and tomato paste. Mix and cook further until water boils off.

      Fry prepared vegetables in cooking oil over medium heat until wilted. Boil two cups of water in a small pot. Add 1 teaspoon of salt and rice and boil further until rice softens. Drain the water and let cool slightly.

      Peel eggplants and cut a circle at the tops, then remove insides without creating any holes at the sides or the end. Sprinkle some salt inside the eggplants. Mix prepared meat, vegetables and rice well. Fill the eggplants with the mix and close the tops.

      Fry eggplants in cooking oil for 5-10 minutes over medium heat, then place in a pot side by side (avoid stacking them). Dissolve one teaspoon of tomato paste in a glass of hot water and add to eggplants. Add salt, black pepper, lime juice and sugar and simmer for 5-10 minutes until water boils off.

          Skin and chop onions. Clean and wash chicken. Add a glass of water, salt, and onions. Cook over medium heat for about 20-30 minutes, adding water by small amounts if necessary. There should be about 1/2 cup of water left when chicken is cooked. Add that water to milk. Add melted butter, salt, pepper, almonds, parsley, and bread crumbs, and mix well.

          Remove chicken bones and grind the meat in a meat-grinder. Add the mix and again mix well. Remove balls about 4-5 cm in diameter from the mix. Spread some flour on a clean, flat surface. Shape each ball into an ellipse with a thickness of 2 cm on that surface.

          Break the eggs open into a bowl, add salt, and mix well. Heat up cooking oil in a pan. Soak kotlets in the egg mix, and fry on both sides until golden. Can be served with potatoes and parsley.
