- Rinse all the meat. Turn the intestines inside out with the help of a thin stick and rinse them thoroughly. Rub them with salt and lemon juice and rinse them again. Cube them into small portions.
- In a large saucepan, saute the onions in the butter, until they start to change color. Add the chopped intestines, liver, lights and heart, fry together for a few minutes, stirring. Add the shredded lettuces and all the fresh herbs and sautee for a few more minutes.
- Add the hot water, and seasoning, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
- Then add the rice and cook for a further 10 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and let it stand for 10 minutes, before proceeding with the avgolemono sauce.

Yes, we greeks call it guts soup, haha, personally I dont like to eat it, but a lot of people I know think its very tasty and delicious. I guess thats why we are individuals with different tastes.
you would so change your mind if you tasted it first. I m a chef and i never thought something made of those things would taste so amazingly yummy
