Just in time for Lunch!.... I recommend this whole blog entry from "The Log Blog" for full visual understanding.

Manley's Patent Spiced Placenta Fricassée

1 placenta (fresh or frozen)
2 large onions, cut into eighths
4 cloves garlic, crushed
4oz plain flour
tspn Thai 7 spice seasoning
tspn paprika
1 cup water
pinch salt
oil
barley(optional)

Method:
Heat the oil in a flat bottomed pan
Mix the flour, salt and spices well
Cube the placenta, roll the cubes in the spiced flour and set it aside.
Once the oil is smoking hot, fry the onions and garlic for 2 minutes until they begin to brown
Add spiced placenta cubes and sear for a further minute.
Add water, a little at a time, until the placenta and onions are boiling in a placenta gravy.
Add barley if required, depending on number of guests.
simmer for 8 minutes or until done.

I served this with boiled potatoes, carrots and peas.
It was smashing.

Very similar to my Liver and Onions recipie.

If you choose to eat your placenta, (and there are some good reasons to do so, despite the yeuch factor) then it might as well taste nice.

Placenta: The only meat that you can eat without harming an animal.

Well, I suppose placenta isn't any less appetizing than liver & onions!
