Lung Goulash
The perfect way to cook beef lung! A lot of cooks walk right past beef lung at the store — and that's a shame. I'd really encourage you to give it a look, because it makes dishes that are not only tasty but also budget-friendly, which is one more point in its favor.

- First, soak the lung in cold water for 1.5–2 hours to draw out excess blood, changing the water a couple of times. Rinse it under running water, let it drain, and cut it into pieces. The size depends on what you're making — for goulash I cut the lung into roughly 3×1 inch strips. Put them in a deep skillet, pour in about 1 cup of water, and press down with a lid smaller than the pan. This way the lung cooks in a minimal amount of water while staying fully submerged under the lid. I also recommend keeping a kettle of water boiling, since you'll need to top up the water as it cooks. Cook the lung over medium heat for about 30 minutes, checking now and then and adding hot water from the kettle as needed. If you cut the pieces larger, the cooking time may go up by about 10 minutes. Once the lung is cooked as described above, add the coarsely grated carrot, chopped bell pepper, and onion to it and sauté briefly in the vegetable oil. Then stir in the tomato paste and hot water (or broth) and simmer everything for about 10–15 minutes. Near the end of cooking, add the coriander, salt, pepper, and minced garlic. When done, sprinkle with finely chopped fresh herbs. Serve lung goulash with any side — rice, pasta, mashed potatoes, or potatoes baked in a roasting bag. A tasty and quite filling dinner.
