Hearts, roasted carrots

My hearts recipe here is from the Italian classic ‘The silver spoon’ and correctly titled is hearts with herbs, but I had no herbs in and made it anyway as the dish sounded so delicious - and it was.  I’ve not made hearts for over 25 years and even then I’d only once made myself, but was a very happy eater of them, made by my mum, baked I think, in the 1970s - my family always called hearts ‘prairie chicken’ which was my dad’s way of getting us kids to eat offal. The gravy made alongside the hearts was gorgeous and as with everything in ‘The silver spoon’ was super simple to make.  The roasted carrots were from a recipe in Jamie Oliver’s ‘Jamie at home’ and were roasted in garlic and tangerine juice (should have been orange but I only had a tangerine).
