• 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Preheat your Hindi Simpal Recipes oven to 200°C (400°F).

   • In the same pot, add the diced kidneys and cook for 2-3 minutes until browned. Remove and set aside with the beef.

7. Serving:
