Stuffed Beef Tripe recipe "Egyptian Mombar"

Ingredients : 
 1kg cow tripe (cleaned by rubbing them with mixture of salt and flour)
3½ cups short-grain Egyptian rice
1 litre water
1 large onion (peeled and grated)
4 tomatoes (grated)
1 bunch of parsley (finely chopped)
1 bunch of dill (finely chopped)
1 bunch of cilantro (finely chopped)
2 tbsp of butter or oil (to taste)
2 bay leaves
Thread
Directions:
Wash the rice, drain into a large strainer then shake well to remove excess water. Place in a large bowl. Add tomato, parsley, dill, onion season with salt and pepper. Mix well.
Using your fingers to carefully open the intestine from the top, push the stuffing inside with the other hand  (not to overstuff or it will crack when it cooks). Use thread to close the ends of the intestines.
In a deep pot add the water and bring to boil. Season with black pepper and bay leaves. Add the stuffed intestines to boil for around 20 minutes on medium heat, until the rice is cooked. Drain and let cool.
Melt the butter or oil in a frying pan. Add the tripe and keep turning until they are brown; roughly for 7-8 minutes. Serve immediately.
