Albanian style Liver

Albanian style LiverSue likes Liver anyway, I'm not that keen and Buster the dog has always turned his nose up at anything that is offal like. So we went fishing on the Internet for a recipe which was a bit different than simple Liver and Onions. With a bit of modification on our part this is what we came up with and even as somebody who's not keen I can confirm it was good! 
 
Ingredients:-
 
900g/1lb Pig’s liver, cut into cubes
2 tbsp plain white flour (Gluten Free in our case)
1 tsp flaked Chilli
1 tsp dried Thyme
1 tsp salt
freshly ground black pepper
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 tsp ground Sumac
1 red onion, thinly sliced
½ cup of chopped parsley
Oil for frying
 
Method:-
 
(1) In a bowl combine the flour, flaked Chilli, thyme, salt and some freshly ground black pepper.
(2) Add the cubes of liver and toss well, making sure it is evenly coated. If you have one put the flour etc. in a zip plastic bag, then add the meat and shake well.
(3) In a frying pan, heat the oil  and sauté the garlic for about 30 seconds. Add the liver and cook on a high heat turning constantly to ensure it is evenly cooked.
(4) Cook until the liver is crispy on the outside but not overcooked. The inside should remain soft and pinky. Add half the chopped parsley and remove from the pan.
(5) Serve on a bed of sliced red onion tossed with the remaining parsley and ground Sumac.
 
Notes:-
 
We found an 'Intercontinental' Shop where the Sumac was 79p for 100g. The original recipe was intended for Calves's Liver, but the Pig's Liver was less than £1 for 900g. Lamb's Liver at £200 per Kg is out of the question!
 
We served ours with Potato wedges and fried Leek.

Well I guess we're all in the same boat? We've a reasonable amount of dried foods, plenty in freezer, but we've forgotten some bits and bobs. So we've had to swap a few ingredients.

(1) No Lettuce? Use the greens from the top on a bunch of Beetroot!

(2) We don't have much salad in all all and can't get any, so use 4 Potato Waffles to add bulk!

A bowl of thin hand cut fries, some homemade red Cabbage & Celeriac Coleslaw and homemade Onion rings. It might not have been the healthiest meal, but it tasted gooood!
