  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Rinse the chicken liver, remove the films, dry and chop coarsely. In a frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and 1 tablespoon of butter. I specially took a mixture of oils.

    Step 15.

    Put the liver in the pan with the vegetables, mix again. Remove the pan from the heat, cover with a lid and let it brew for about 5 minutes. Due to the fact that the liver was fried for a very short time, it will remain soft and very juicy. Serve the dish on the table. Bon appetit!

Choose juicy but dense tomatoes. Soft fruits do not keep their shape well, in the process of slicing and cooking they will spread into a shapeless mass and spoil the appearance of the dish.

Please note that in some cases there is no need to remove the bitterness from eggplants - usually young vegetables are not bitter, as well as some special varieties of them.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.
