Bats are known to disturb decent citizens’ sleep patterns with their supersonic ruckus and constant lust for innocent blood in the darkness of the night. This insolent mammal’s strain should be made sparse and the best way to achieve this is to use bats as food.
Portion size
One bat, one diner
Ingredients
Bats. Use as many as you have diners.
Preparation
1. Relocate yourself to the Palawan island and hunt down these nocturnal pests.
2. Cut off your prey’s wings.
3. Hang up the flying appendages near the open fire to dry. Alternatively, use wooden spikes and nail them on a board of timber of your choice to give them unique flavor.
4. Let the wings dry and get real crisp – it should take about five to ten minutes. Use this time to open the bat, but do not take out the succulent intestines – we are going to use them later.
5. Throw the animal into the fire. No need for cauldron, pot or a kettle, the bat is its own cooking vessel.
6. Judge by the delicious smell, when the bat is done.
7. You don’t need the skin, so throw that to the beasts of the surrounding jungle. The inner organs of the vampire are what we are after – the heart and the brains are the most coveted pieces.
8. Place the inner organs and intestines in esthetically pleasing way on the crisp wings. Decorate with Greater Plantain.
Tip: This crackbrained creature of the night is easiest to catch by bird netting.
