Fried Liver Pies

8 servings

180 minutes

Here we decided to use veal liver: its taste is more intense than chicken liver, but at the same time it is much more tender than beef liver. Liver loves onions, and we did not deny it - we used as many as 3 onions per 600 grams of liver . In addition, this is necessary so that the filling remains juicy. This recipe is also strict in its form, but nothing prevents you from diversifying it with spices and herbs.
