I remember my mum used to cook [[kidney]] turbigo when we were small children and I even remember it being spicy. This is as close to her recipe that I have been able to get to the recipe she used to make.

{{RecipeIngredients
| 12 [[Shallots|shallots]]
| 50 g (2 oz) [[Butter|butter]]
| Olive oil for frying
| 6 lambs [[Kidneys|kidneys]], washed, skinned, cored and cut into small chunks
| 1 pack of thin chipolata sausages (about 340 g)
| 150 g fresh [[button mushrooms]], quartered
| 2 teaspoons [[Plain flour|plain flour]]
| 1 teaspoon [[Tomato puree|tomato puree]]
| 1 tablespoons of [[Sherry|sherry]]
| 1 tablespoon of [[Sherry vinegar|sherry vinegar]]
| 284 ml (1/2 pint) [[Beef stock|beef stock]]
| Good splash of [[Louisiana hot pepper sauce]] or [[Tabasco sauce]]
| 1 [[Bay leaf|bay leaf]]
| [[Sea Salt|sea salt]] and [[Freshly ground black pepper|freshly ground black pepper]]
| 2 tablespoons freshly chopped [[Parsley|parsley]]
}}
===Method===

{{RecipeMethod
| [[Blanch]] the [[Shallots|shallots]] in [[Boiling|boiling]] [[Salted|salted]] water for 2 minutes, drain and peel - it's easier after they have been blanched. Set aside.
| Heat a splash of [[olive oil]] in a pan and [[sauté]] the [[Kidneys|kidneys]] and [[sausages]] on a fairly high heat until [[Browned|browned]] all over. Lift out the kidneys and sausages with a slotted spoon and set aside. I prefer to discard the juice and fat at this stage.
| Give the pan a wipe round, add 50 g of [[butter]] and add the [[Onions|onions]] and [[Mushrooms|mushrooms]]. [[Sauté]] for 5 minutes, stirring often.
| Leaving the [[Mushrooms|mushrooms]] and [[Onions|onions]] in the pan, remove it from the heat and stir in the [[Flour|flour]].
| Deglaze the pan with the [[Sherry|sherry]] and the [[Sherry vinegar|sherry vinegar]], add [[Tomato puree|tomato puree]], [[Stock|stock]] and [[Bay leaf|bay leaf]], 1 tablespoon of the [[parsley]] and season to taste with [[Salt|salt]] and [[Pepper|pepper]]
| Cut the [[sausages]] in half or smaller pieces if you wish.
| Return to the heat, bring to the [[Boil|boil]] and return the [[Kidneys|kidneys]] and [[Sausages|sausages]], reduce the heat, cover and [[Simmer|simmer]] for 40 minutes.
| Discard the bay leaf and serve immediately, sprinkled with the remaining parsley.
}}
===Serving suggestions===
The classic accompaniment for this dish is fried [[croutons]], but I prefer it with [[Peas|peas]] and [[Mashed potatoes|mashed potatoes]]. Plain [[Tortilla chips|tortilla chips]] would be a nice [[Side dish|side dish]] for this.
===Variations===
A few rashers of [[home smoked bacon]] added with the sausages would go well with this.
