Trippa Finta

By LeeBoruchow

Fake tripe... in appearance, not taste.

Ingredients

• 8 eggs
• Salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons fresh oregano
• olive oil, to saute
• 1 recipe Basic Tomato Sauce
• 3 fresno chilis, rough chop
• 1 pinch dried chili flakes
• 1/2 cup freshly grated pecorino

Preparation

Step 1

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, season with salt and pepper and add the oregano and parmigano. In a nonstick pan, use the egg mixture and cook until it has solidified and is easily slid from the pan, about 2 minutes per side. Repeat this procedure, setting each omelet aside to cool.
When the omelets are cool, cut each into 1/4-inch thick strips.

In a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the tomato sauce and the chilis and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Add the egg strips and simmer for 10 minutes. Top with grated parmigano and serve.
