Method

Preheat your heavy based frying pan with the clarified butter until sizzling hot
Season the sweetbreads just prior to cooking then sauté them in the butter until golden, 2 to 3 minutes each side
Add the mushrooms and shallots and sauté for a further minute or two, until tender
Pour the balsamic reduction over the sweetbreads and toss, creating a rich glaze
Divide between 4 warmed serving plates
Finish the plates with the fresh peas, mint & salad leaves lightly tossed with capers and a little rapeseed oil
