Pork Brain Patties

Ingredients

• 200 g — raw pork brain
• 1 leaf — bay leaf
• to taste — table salt
• 50 g — carrots
• 5 g — dill
• 10 g — spring onion (1 bunch)
• 2 level tbsp (26 g) — wheat semolina
• 1–2 cloves — garlic (or garlic powder)
• 1 medium egg M (60 g) — chicken egg

Preparation

I boiled the brain in salted water with a bay leaf for about 10–15 minutes. I mixed the well-drained boiled brain with the egg, semolina, crushed garlic, chopped dill, chopped spring onion, finely grated raw carrot, and a pinch of salt. I dropped spoonfuls of the mixture onto parchment paper and baked the patties for approximately 30 minutes at 200°C.

Additional notes

1. I blend the brain lobes as I don't like feeling whole pieces in the mixture.
2. These brain patties can also be cooked quickly in a non-stick pan with no oil at all.
3. The semolina can be replaced with breadcrumbs, flaxseed flour, ground oat flakes, or crushed cornflakes.
