Tips for Tender, Flavorful Mutton Liver
- Don’t overcook: Liver should be just cooked through. Overcooking makes it rubbery.
- Soak in milk: This removes some of the metallic taste and results in a milder flavor.
- Spice smart: Liver pairs beautifully with warm spices, fresh herbs, and a little acidity.
- Rest after cooking: Let it sit for a minute before serving so the juices settle.
Variations to Try
- Gravy Style: Add more tomatoes and a splash of water or stock for a saucier version.
- South Indian Style: Add curry leaves, mustard seeds, and coconut for a regional twist.
- Middle Eastern Version: Use olive oil, cumin, sumac, and plenty of onions for a Lebanese-style liver sauté.
