Ingredients
- 1 1/2 lb chicken liver
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1 tbsp salt adjust to taste
- 1 tsp ground black pepper adjust to taste
- 2 cup mayonnaise
- 5 garlic cloves
- 1/2 cup diced fresh dill
- 3 tbsp canola oil
Instructions
- Rinse the chicken liver under cold running water. Using a blender or grinder, blend the liver into tiny pieces. Add sour cream, egg, salt, pepper, and flour to the blended chicken liver. Pulse the mixture a couple of times to combine.
- Preheat a skillet over medium heat with a little bit of oil. Pour a thin crepe like layer of the liver mixture onto the skillet.
- Cook each side for a couple of minutes until golden brown. Set it aside to cool at room temperature.
- In a separate bowl, combine the pressed garlic, diced dill, and mayonnaise.
- Assemble the cake by alternating a liver crepe with a layer of the mayonnaise mixture. Repeat until you run out of crepes.
- Refrigerate the liver cake for at least an hour before serving. Slice and enjoy!
