Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams calf liver
- 1 large onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 2 small green chili
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon ground turmeric
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon lime or lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley
Instructions
Rinse the calf liver under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels. Cut the liver into thin, bite-sized pieces.
Peel and finely slice the onion. Mince the garlic and green chili.
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced onions to the skillet and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and green chili and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the calf liver slices to the skillet. Sprinkle with ground coriander, cumin, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the liver in the spices.
Cook the liver for 6-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it is browned on the outside and just cooked through. Be careful not to overcook to keep the liver tender.
Remove the skillet from heat and drizzle the lime or lemon juice over the liver. Stir to combine.
Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve hot alongside flatbread, rice, or a fresh salad.
