1 Turtle
1 Flour
1 Oil
1 Water
1 Carrots
1 Onions
1 Potatoes
1 Salt
1 Pepper
1 Garlic
1 Cornstarch
You remove the shell by cutting it between the front and back legs (if you know where to slip the knife in at, it is rather easy) To fix the turtle make sure you remove all of the fat. It leaves a fishy/gamy flavor if you don't. Cut the feet off, they're not worth your time or trouble to fix. The eggs have a fishy flavor no matter how you fix them. I don't really recommend them. Besides, when you boil them (no matter how long), they don't turn solid like chicken eggs. Each piece is a quarter or thigh with a bone going down through the middle. Dredge the meaty pieces with flour and brown with your favorite oil in a skillet. Place the pieces of meat in a slow cooker, add a little water, carrots, onions, potatoes and some salt, pepper, and garlic. After it has cooked, you can thicken the juices with a little cornstarch and serve. You'd swear you're eating roast beef.
