Submitted by cuisinebymae

"This is very good. The sauce is thin, but complements the heart nicely. Good with boiled potatoes, and peas. C'mon...try it!!"

I didn't use the celery but everything else was "by the recipe". I actually didn't eat this until day 3 but poured the sauce over the sliced heart and put it in the fridge. On day 3 this was AWESOME! Hubby doesn't like heart and I'm trying to save some for him to taste because I really think he'll like this one. Don't know that the heart will last that long though :). Thanks for a keeper!

Thanks MaeEast. I didn't have a clue what to do with the beef heart I bought. This worked just fine and was very tender.
