1 cup breadcrumbs |
oil (for frying) |
1 lemon, sliced, garnish |

Directions:
1. In a large bowl of cold water soak brains for 1 hour. Drain, remove membrane, and cook in salted water for 5 minutes. Remove, cool, and cut each one into three parts sprinkling well with salt and pepper.
2. Beat egg in a shallow dish and add bread crumbs to another shallow dish. Dip brain pieces into the beaten egg and than the bread crumbs covering well. Add breaded pieces to a large skillet of hot oil and brown.
