Ingredients for Liver

  • 250 gm mutton liver cleaned and cubed
  • 4 potatoes peeled and cubed, then fried until tender and drained.
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1/2 tsp red chilli powder
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 1 tsp black pepper roughly crushed
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • 1/2 tsp red chilli flakes optional
  • 4 tbsp oil
  • 1/2 tsp garlic paste
  • 1/2 tsp ginger paste
  • juice of half a lemon
  • 1 green chilli chopped
  • salt to taste
  • some freshly chopped coriander leaves

Ingredients for Rice

  • 3 cups boiled/pre-cooked plain rice if you want it yellow add turmeric powder to it whilst boiling
  • 2 lemons juiced and zested
  • 1-2 green chillies chopped
  • 1 tsp mustard seeds
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds chopped finely
  • 2 tbsp oil
  • 2 curry leaves/limro

Instructions
 

  • First prepare the Liver
    Heat oil in a pan, fry onions until translucent, then add liver with ginger/garlic pastes and add all the spices along with lemon juice, green chillies and salt/pepper. Cook until the liver changes colour and is about done. Add the fried potatoes and stir together so the potatoes get well coated with the onion masala.
    Once done, immediately remove from heat, otherwise the liver will become hard if over-cooked. Garnish with coriander leaves.
    Next, prepare the Rice
    Heat the oil, add the mustard seeds and cumin seeds, followed by the curry leaves and green chilli.
    Add the lemon juice followed by the rice. Stir together for a few minutes until it is heated through then add the zest and serve hot!

      That is strange, liver should not taste bitter. Is this normal for whenever you make liver? Try buying it from a different butchery.

      Hi, no..curry leaves are not the same as curry powder. They have very different flavours. You can leave it out if you do not have it.

      W/Salaam, it’s just the picture quality is poor..this was one of my earliest pics. It doesn’t overpower the lemon taste, instead it helps intensify the lemon flavour.
