Trippa alla Romana

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds of tripe (beef stomach)
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 carrot, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons of olive oil
  • 1 can (14 ounces) of diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup of white wine
  • 1 teaspoon of red pepper flakes
  • 1 teaspoon of dried oregano
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • Grated Parmesan cheese for serving
  • Fresh parsley, chopped, for garnish

Instructions

  1. First things first, we need to rinse the tripe thoroughly under cold water. Make sure to get any impurities off it, y’all.
  2. In a large pot, fill it with water, add the tripe, and bring it to a boil. Cook for about 1-2 hours until it’s tender. Drain and chop into strips.
  3. In another pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once hot, add the onion, garlic, and carrot. Sauté until the onion becomes translucent.
  4. Next, add the chopped tripe to the onion mixture and stir it in well. Pour in the white wine and let it simmer until the alcohol evaporates, about 5 minutes.
  5. Stir in the diced tomatoes, red pepper flakes, oregano, and season with salt and black pepper. Let this simmer for about 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let those flavors meld together!
  6. Once the tripe has soaked up all those delicious flavors, taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with parsley and a generous sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese on top.

And there you have it! A heartwarming bowl of Trippa alla Romana that’ll have everyone asking for seconds. Enjoy the cozy, rich flavors of this Italian classic and share the love around your table!
