1/2 cup parsley, chopped
3 garlic cloves, crushed

1/2 cup beef stock
1/2 cup dry red wine
2 bay leaves, crushed
1 teaspoon thyme
salt & pepper
2 (3 cm) pieces lemon peel
1/2 cup romano cheese, freshly grated
italian bread, chargrilled
2 tablespoons parsley, chopped
Directions:
1. Parboil tripe for about 30 minutes. Drain & cool. Slice up tripe into 2cm strips.
2. Saute very quickly in a little of the oil in a large frying pan. Add the carrots, celery, onion, parsley & garlic. Add the tomato sauce, beef stock and wine. Add the seasonings and lemon peel.
