Production※
Goat's lungs are filled with spicy batter through the windpipe. The batter is forced into the lungs by, "means of a pump." Or by squeezing small plastic bag filled with the liquid mixture into the opening. The lungs are patted——to facilitate filling.
After the lungs are completely filled and no more batter can be, "pumped in," the end of the windpipe is folded and tied with a piece of string——to prevent the contents from spilling out. The lungs are then boiled, sliced and pan fried.
