1 beef tongue (4 pounds)
2 onions
2 carrots, sliced
1 stick celery (with leaves), sliced
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup raisins
3 tablespoons almonds, chopped

Simmer the tongue in water to cover with one onion, coarsely chopped, the carrots, celery and garlic, for about three hours or until tender. Turn off heat and leave the tongue in its cooking broth while you prepare the sauce.
Chop the remaining onion and saute in the butter in a small pan. Add the raisins and the almonds and fry until the almonds are golden brown.
