Method (preview)

1. 1

   Whatever the size, they will be slashed; this is normal.

2. 2

   Soak in lightly salted water for 10 minutes then rinse, drain and dry well.

3. 3

   Chop the onion finely and soften it in 1 oz butter.

4. 4

   Away from the heat stir in the breadcrumbs, lemon zest, 4 tablespoons parsley and lots of salt and pepper.

5. 5

   Bind with the egg and milk.

6. 6

   Use the mixture to stuff the heart cavities, and secure the openings with toothpicks or cocktail sticks - there is no need to make perfect closures.

7. 7

   Whizz the tomatoes in a blender, stir in the vinegar and add enough stock to make up to 1 pint.

8. 8

   Dust the hearts thoroughly with the well-seasoned flour.

9. 9

   Melt 1 oz butter in a flameproof casserole, stir in the leftover flour and let it brown a little.

10. 10

    Blend in the tomato mixture and make a smooth, bubbling hot sauce.

11. 11

    Cover with greaseproof paper and the lid, and cook at 325 F (160 C) gas mark 3 for 1 hour.

12. 12

    Transfer the hearts to a warmed serving dish.

13. 13

    Stir the mustard into the sauce, add salt and pepper to taste - and carefully blend in the yoghurt if liked.

14. 14

    Pour the sauce over the hearts, scatter lavishly with chopped parsley and serve with boiled potatoes or noodles.
