🧂 Ingrédients
- 1 liter Pork blood(fresh, strained)
- 1 cup Cooked rice(slightly firm, not mushy)
- 0.5 cup Pork fat (manteca)(rendered and slightly cooled)
- 1 medium Onion(finely chopped)
- 4 cloves Garlic(minced)
- 0.25 cup Raisins(optional)
- 0.5 tsp Cinnamon
- 0.25 tsp Nutmeg
- 0.5 tsp Oregano(dried)
- 1 tsp Salt(or to taste)
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper(freshly ground)
- Pork intestines (cleaned)(for casing)
👨🍳 Instructions
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the strained pork blood, cooked rice, rendered pork fat, finely chopped onion, minced garlic, raisins (if using), cinnamon, nutmeg, oregano, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
- 2
Carefully stuff the mixture into the cleaned pork intestines, filling them about two-thirds full to allow for expansion during cooking. Tie off the ends securely with kitchen twine.
- 3
In a large pot, bring enough water to a boil to cover the morcillas. Gently place the stuffed intestines into the boiling water. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 30-40 minutes, or until the morcillas are firm and cooked through. Prick them with a needle a few times during cooking to prevent bursting.
- 4
Remove the morcillas from the water and let them cool slightly. They can be refrigerated and then fried or grilled before serving, or used in other dishes.
- 5
To serve, slice the morcilla and pan-fry in a little oil or grill until browned and heated through.
