Directions

  • To make the livers, heat the oil in a large frying pan and sauté the onion and garlic for a few seconds.
  • Mix in the paprika, cloves, cumin, chilli flake and season. Add the livers and fry until browned.
  • Pour in the wine and add the bay leaves and gently simmer until cooked through.
  • For the mash, place the potatoes in a pot and cover with cold water and season. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
  • Add in the hot milk and mageu. Use a potato masher or wooden spoon and beat until smooth. Don’t over beat the potatoes either wise they do tend to become gluey.
  • Sprinkle with the Parmesan and parsley and serve topped with the chicken livers and green salad if you are serving.
