    1. Rinse the hearts, cut them in half, and cut out the vessels, then rinse away any blood clots. Pat dry with a paper towel and slice the hearts about 3 mm (⅛ inch) thick. 2. Put the sliced hearts in a bowl, sprinkle with paprika and freshly ground black pepper, and mix well with your hands. 3. Wash the carrots, peel them, and cut into rounds. 4. Wash the leek and cut it into small pieces. 5. Peel the onion and chop finely. 6. Wash the mushrooms, pat them dry, and cut into small pieces. 7. Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat and pour in the vegetable oil. 8. Add both onions and the carrots to the oil and cook for a few minutes, stirring. 9. Add the mushrooms and cook a few minutes more. 10. Peel the garlic cloves, mince them, add to the pan, and stir. 11. Cook everything until the carrots soften (about 10 minutes), then add the hearts, sprinkle with salt and sugar, add the spices, and stir. 12. Cover the pan and cook everything together for 10 minutes. Serve with any side dish (the hearts are especially good with grains of all kinds), garnished with the thinly sliced cucumber peel on top. Enjoy!
