Beef liver casserole in the oven

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   How to make liver casserole? Prepare the necessary ingredients. It is very important to choose a fresh liver. Its color should be burgundy-brown, without darkening. If beige or orange streaks come across, it means that the liver has been repeatedly frozen-thawed. The liver should be elastic. Frozen liver can also be used. In this case, it must be pre-thawed in the refrigerator.

2. Step 2:

   

   Wash beef liver, dry, remove all films and ducts. Cut into small pieces.

3. Step 3:

   

   Pour 100 ml of milk into the liver and leave for 15-20 minutes. Then drain the milk and rinse the liver until clear water. You can fill the liver with ordinary water, but milk is better - then the liver will have a more delicate creamy taste.

4. Step 4:

   

   Peel the onion and carrot. Cut the onion into small cubes or semicircles.

5. Step 5:

   

   Grate the carrots on a coarse grater.

   Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan and fry the onion and carrot over medium heat until golden brown.

   Put beef liver and fried vegetables in a blender bowl.

    The liver dough should not be very thick, like on pancakes. If the dough turned out to be runny, you can add another 1 tbsp. l. flour. If too thick (which is unlikely), then dilute with more milk.

13. Step 12:

    

    Grease the baking dish with butter. Pour out the liver mass and smooth it out. Put the casserole in preheated to 180 ° C for 30-35 minutes. Check the readiness with a toothpick: it should come out dry. It is important not to over-dry the casserole. If you see that cracks have appeared on the surface, then the casserole is ready or almost ready.
