Open the bag of cow intestines and rinse them thoroughly under cold water to clean them.

Cut the intestines into sections about 3-4 inches long to make them easier to work with.

Dice 4-5 pieces of bacon into thin strips for cooking.

Fry the diced bacon in a wok to render the fat, turning on the heat to cook it.

Slice an onion into nice slices while the bacon is frying.

Once the bacon is cooked, turn off the heat and add the rinsed intestines to the wok.

Add minced garlic and the sliced onion to the intestines in the wok.

Sprinkle garlic salt lightly over the mixture, followed by cayenne pepper and red pepper to taste.

Turn the heat back on and let the mixture boil, stirring occasionally to ensure even cooking.

Let it boil for about 30-40 minutes until the intestines are tender and start frying in their own juices.

Check the frying process; if you prefer crunchier intestines, let them fry longer.

Remove the intestines with a straining spoon and place them on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

Sprinkle garlic salt and squeeze lime juice over the fried intestines before serving.
