Have you tried dirty rice? It's a Cajun chicken liver rice recipe. Very tasty!Robertnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-57911118762212808912010-11-12T13:28:01.044+00:002010-11-12T13:28:01.044+00:00I've been thinking about doing a chicken liver...I've been thinking about doing a chicken liver sauce recipe for pasta, Robert.

Lambs is always panfried with tomato and onion to be served with mash and gravy. Whereas chicken liver is ideal for making ragu as it enriches an otherwise ordinary meat pasta sauce.Robertnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-57270297068571575772010-11-06T07:04:18.426+00:002010-11-06T07:04:18.426+00:00@TheFoodieHistorian I think you've put your fi...@TheFoodieHistorian I think you've put your finger on the main problem people have with liver - the texture.

One of the first dishes I learnt to make was a Good Housekeeping recipe called Liver and Bacon Provencale which was obviously not Provencal but very tasty nonetheless. Spicing it up a bit like this really helps.Fiona Becketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970779962455905201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-54843182680998263082010-11-03T19:27:40.852+00:002010-11-03T19:27:40.852+00:00Liver and other bits of offal was always regular f...Liver and other bits of offal was always regular fare at home when we were growing up because it was so cheap. I haven't eaten liver for years, although my ex-husband used to cook it in a tomatoey sauce that was really nice. <br /><br />Next time I see a bit of lambs liver I might give this recipe a try, thanks.Jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00124374747737466986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-87359900854252624562010-11-03T12:34:23.638+00:002010-11-03T12:34:23.638+00:00Never tried that I must admit . . .Never tried that I must admit . . .Fiona Becketthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12970779962455905201noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362152498675364583.post-88011182947751297712010-11-03T08:38:49.305+00:002010-11-03T08:38:49.305+00:00I love lambs liver.
