Lamb fries
Lamb fries are lamb testicles used as food. Historically they were parboiled, cut in half, and seasoned.[1] Lamb testicles are served in a variety of cuisines, including Italian, [2] American[3] Basque,[4] barbecue, Chinese,[5] Caucasian,[6] and Turkish.[7] In the United States they are often served breaded and fried.
Lamb fries, often served in a cream gravy, are a traditional dish in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky.[8]
