Sweet and sour - slice lambs fry thinly, coat in flour and fry in a little butter with sliced onions and bacon, add water and tablespoon golden syrup, salt and pepper.Cook until lambs fry done, yummy!

City girl's lamb's fry:Cut it medium.Fry quickly both sides in minimal oil.Very finely gratetwo teaspoons of the rind of an orange over it,then hand-squeeze the juice from both halves over.Put on lid and simmer gently.Take off the lid to evaporate,turning the meat.Fantastic.

+1 The taste is SOOOOO much better when it is fresh! Until 10 years ago I always lived on a farm. After a couple of purchases of lamb's fry from butchers, I've given up even thinking about cooking it, though I love it!

forget what "everyone" says. they are wrong. that is thinking from 50 years ago.
sounds like you cooked it pretty much right. should be still pink, but not bleeding, inside. just cut a piece in the pan to check, but remember it will continue to cook a little after you remove it from the heat.
in the old days it was like boot leather. it SHOULD be pink, soft and "melt in the mouth"

City girl from farming stock, wed a farmer. Have always loved lambsfry and our children love it too. As toddlers they would ask for lambsfry. Love it sliced thinly, steeped in milk then drained,lightly floured then sauteed in butter with onions,bacon and mushrooms. The best I have ever tasted was several years ago at the Collingwood Tavern.

I was brought up on a farm and we ate liver(lambs fry) and I used to love sheeps brains. Tried cooking heart once but not so fussed about that.
