Ask your butcher to remove the membranes and fat from the kidneys. Cut them into 3/4-inch pieces. SautÄ them quickly in the butter and oil in a frying pan. Remove the kidneys from the pan and place on a serving platter, keep warm. Throw out the cooking fat and deglaze the pan with 2 tablespoons gin and the beer. Add the juniper berries, salt and pepper. Reduce by 1/3. Add the crÅme fraöche and cook until thickened. Strain the sauce over the kidneys. Serve with very thin French fries.

Be careful to keep the kidneys pink in the center. When overcooked kidneys become tough.
