directions

  • Preheat the oven to 175°C.
  • Boil the rice in the water and milk until the rice is done - not all the liquid is vaporised, you should end up with a watery mixture. Cool.
  • Chop the onions finely and fry until soft.
  • In the cooled down rice-milk mixture, mix in the liver, onions, egg, raisins and the spices. The mixture should still be quite runny.
  • Pour the mixture into a buttered shallow oven dish, put some knobs of butter on top.
  • Bake for 1-1,5 h until brown.
  • This would traditionally be served with lingonberry jam, but any red tart jam like cranberry should be good.

  1. Just like my Finnish mummi would make. But I tried baking at 175 for 1.5 hours like it suggested...and the meat didn’t taste cooked. Do an hour at 350, that’s my suggestion. Oh and sprinkle the top with cinnamon, that’s how my mummi made it
     
  2. Yup, I like this
     
  3. Very good. No one even realized it was liver. Should have kept my big yap shut. Made over a campfire. Zaar World Tour 05
