  • Burn the hoofs and horns and peel them off with the point of a heavy knife.
  • Wash the head and legs thoroughly with soap and a rough sponge or brush.
  • Chop into small pieces with a sharp cleaver and rinse thoroughly, discarding the brains.
  • Pour over the lemon juice and mix in. Leave to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Grind together the onions, garlic, chilis and tomatoes.
  • Place meat in a large pot, add the sliced onions, chilis, stock, and seasonings. Cover and cook for 45 minutes. Check and stir frequently.

Adjust seasoning and serve in traditional earthenware dishes garnish with chopped mint.
