I have been cooking lambs kidneys the same old way for such a long time and decided now was the time for a change. This is very similar but the red wine really gave it a richness of flavour that I was seeking and also the mushrooms. I sliced the kidney into about 4/5 slices each and followed the recipe. I did, however, add some chopped bacon and garlic. It was really a nice meal served with vegetables. Thanks Molly 53

I tried the recipe as is, except I used beef kidney. The mushrooms, onion and wine really add flavor. I thoroughly enjoyed it and so easy to make.

Had this for breakfast this morning. Halved recipe as I was using fresh leftover lamb kidneys from a meal my wife cooked the night before. Scrumptious and yes, the red wine did add to the flavour nicely.
