Another hearty stew

Literally. Freely adapted from this.

Sautéed mushrooms …


… mixed in with pork mince, flour, milk, seasonings …


… and a bit of chopped parsley, thyme, and rosemary …


… stuffed into a couple of sheeps' hearts, then trussed up with string. Not a lot of space for stuffing in a sheep's heart, even with the wall between the ventricles removed, …


… so I made the leftover stuffing into little meatball things, and browned everything in a little oil …


… before putting it all in the small slow cooker with some flour.


Then I sautéed carrot, onion, and bacon …


… and put that on top of the hearts.

Red wine, tomato paste, and a frozen block of pork stock/jelly went in last …


… and then the slow cooker went on overnight.


I haven't eaten it yet, but it tastes delicious. Quite rich. I'm going to have it with cabbage steamed with grated apple and black pepper.
