Ingredients
- 1 lb tripe
- 1 ½ cup vegetable oil
- 3 cups milk
- 2 tbsp salt
- 3 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp ground pepper
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 5 garlic cloves
- ½ cup red wine vinegar
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients. Once ready, let's begin!
- If your tripe doesn’t come pre-cleaned or you’re not sure, it’s easy enough to do it yourself. Put the tripe in a large pot and cover it completely with water and add a generous spoonful of salt.
- Bring the water to a boil for 15 minutes (but make sure it doesn’t overflow).
- Use tongs to take the tripe out of the pot and put it on a cutting board.
- Use a sharp knife to scrape off excess bits. They will appear odd and off-white compared to the rest of the tripe.
- Rinse off the tripe and make sure all the icky bits are off then you’re ready to start cooking.
- Put the tripe into a clean pot and cover it with water. Bring the water to a simmer and keep it there for 5 hours. If the water ever evaporates to expose the tripe, add more water.
- After 5 hours, move the tripe from the pot to a cutting board and keep the water from the pot (just set it aside).
- Chop the tripe into small pieces about an inch small or smaller depending on your preference.
- Put the chopped tripe back into the pot with the water from earlier.
- Finely chop or dice the garlic.
- Add all of the ingredients except the vinegar into the pot and continue simmering for 20 minutes.
- Remove the pot from heat and add the vinegar.
- Stir and serve immediately. The hotter, the better!
