Dougy Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 My bestist ever meal, the gravy is just unbeatable, just one thing i would have to change, the cabbage, i have to have garden peas with mine and for the cream on the top it has to be bramley apple pie and custard.😍 1 minute ago, Ratlegs said: When I was on mobile animal feed, one farmer's wife would bring out a big mug of chitterlings Oh no !!! cant touch that.

Dave at kelton Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 One of my favourite dishes but lambs liver has to be flash cooked each side and soft in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Boggy Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 I love liver, mash and onion gravy and have it quite often. It`s a cheap meal but not many eat it these days. My daughters would never eat it and that`s now passed down to their sons, so never gets tried. Sad really. Enjoy yours today Ditchy. Kidneys is another often forgotten food.

Walker570 Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 IF it where roe liver then even better. Yes, good preparation of liver is important , a couple of good soaks in some water and a good squeeze to get as much blood out a possible. To answer your question Simon, yes my type of fodder but there again there isn't much I will not eat at a push, brought up in the War years when you where glad you had something on the table. Roast leg of lamb today with a crumble to follow made from our own Worcester Permain apples and a couple of Russets added along with a sprinkle of walnuts, clotted cream to help it slide down.

Flyboy1950 Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 Other half was away a fortnight ago, so made myself lambs liver and onions with mashed potatoes, peas and carrots. Smashing, reminded me of when I was a child in the 50s and my Nan used to make it in the frying pan and my twin and I would wipe out the thick gravy from the frying pan with fresh cut crusty bread, made by my Grandad. Happy days. She also made the best ever faggots. FB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amateur Posted October 3, 2021 Report Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) One of our regular favourites is lamb's liver and bacon, but this week, for some reason, Morrisons substituted ox liver, so I made my Vietnamese liver, peanut and soy sauce curry with gram (chickpea) flour pancakes. Delicious! The strong flavour of the ox liver is smoothed out nicely by the coconut milk and crunchy peanut butter Edited October 3, 2021 by amateur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
