Bumbar (Cypriot sausages)

Stuffed intestines with rice; serves 4-6

Ingredients
3 thin intestines (with no hole)
700 gr minced beef
1 large onion -grated
160 gr rice -washed and drained
750 ml (3/4 litre) water
2-3 tablespoons salt
3 tablespoons parsley -finely chopped
2 large ripe tomatoes -peeled and chopped
1 tablespoon tomato paste
100 ml cooking oil
Vinegar
Lemon juice

How to clean the instestines
Wash all the three pieces under cold water.
To clean the inside, take one piece and hold one of the ends with one hand, then with the other hand start turning inside out. Fill the intestine with water, so that it runs out like a long sausage. The fatty outside is now in. Do all the three pieces in the same way.
Wash them again with cold water than rub in some flour, so that all the thick mucuous is rubbled out of them. then wash again.
Lastly, clean with lemon juice and vinegar.


For the filling:
Grate one large onion, chop the tomatoes and parsley.
Wash and drain the rice.
Add all into the minced beef, together with tomato paste, 2 tablespoons salt, and 3/4 litre of water.
Mix all the ingredients well.


Preparation:
Turn all the intestine inside out in the same way. Then with a special funnel which has a large mouth (made for this purpose) fill the intestine with the prepared filling and tie the ends with a thick string.
Put all the stuffed intestines into a large cooking pot. Fill with cold water just to cover all. Add 2 teaspoons of salt. Bring to boil and simmer 30-45 minutes.
In the middle of the cooking time, make holes on each intestine with a skewer, so that all the air escapes. When cooked, take them out of the water and drain.
Keep 3/4 litre of the hot cooking water separately. The rest can be used in making soups or in cooking. Then fry the bumbars (intestines) until brown all over, without damaging them. After frying, take them out and serve warm.

Sorry but - yeuch!

I remember the UK selling brawn (boiled brain I think), pig's trotters and we all know what haggis is! Doesn't mean I have to like it though!

It sounds excellent!!

Brawn is not boiled brain, but the meat from from a boiled cows head (OK, their might be a little bit of brain in it).

Haggis is an excellent dish, I wish it was easier to find here.

Once again I will refrain from mentioning little pickled birds.

I seem to think I mad the mistake before mentioning little pickled birds, but I am sure the pickled birds that come to the Saturday Piss Up will not be so little!

"Both here and in the South I have eaten in local places, bought from "scruffy" looking butchers and bought cheese from old ladies in the local markets - and I have never suffered from food poisoning!! "

The French, the Italians and Spaniards manage to keep their traditional food and maintain high standards of hygiene, higher than any north European country. Everything sparkles in country restaurants in Italy, even those that serve tripe (yuk!). No reason Cypriots should not be as clean if not cleaner.

I think the European Union is the perfect escape goat for politicians around Europe.if a policy fails....welllllllllll it was because of interference from the fat cat euro MEP's.If you ask in Cyprus WHY is our government not stopping these Money grabbers from putting up prices so fast..The answer is,we cannot interfere it's EU Law.I was pro Europe but am now fast becoming anti Europe.I have not yet seen any advantages to Cyprus but I have seen many disadvantages to joining the EU for Cyprus.
Britain is fast becoming a police state and there is so much government interference in daily life that soon you will need permission to blow your own nose.What the hell has gone wrong,when people are employed to check what people throw in there Dustbins.And Ba Ba Black sheep has to be banned because it might cause offence.The west and by the West we mean The EU has gone berserk and if Cyprus does not wish to follow in that madness we need to get out before it's to late for us all.

Oh I am not against hygiene, I am just concerned that those that cannot "keep up" with all the regulations will have to close!!
