Pork Liver Meatballs

To prepare a delicious liver meatball recipe that will bring an authentic and unmistakable taste to your table, follow these simple yet essential steps. Start by chopping the chicken liver in a food processor, choosing a quality one to achieve a fine texture. Add to the liver the onion, peeled and finely chopped, the peeled potatoes cut into small cubes, as well as a slice of bread, which should not be soaked in water, as the liver will already bring a moist and rich consistency.

Once you have obtained a homogeneous mixture, add an egg, salt, freshly ground pepper, and finely chopped mint. These ingredients will not only enhance the flavor of the meatballs but will also add a touch of freshness. It is time to incorporate the breadcrumbs, heaping tablespoons, which will help firm up the mixture. If you want to improve the texture, you can beat the egg white until it becomes frothy and add it to the mixture, making the meatballs fluffier and airier.

Meanwhile, heat a large pan over medium to high heat and add oil, making sure it is about 1 cm high. It is essential that the oil is well heated to achieve an even and crispy frying. Using a spoon, form meatballs from your mixture and let them fry in the hot oil. Make sure not to overcrowd the pan to allow for even frying.

After a few minutes, when you notice the edges of the meatballs changing color and becoming golden, use a stainless steel spatula to check if they are set. If you feel they are ready, carefully turn them to the other side. Continue to fry them for a few more minutes until they become crispy and nicely browned on both sides. Finally, remove the meatballs to a plate lined with absorbent paper, which will help remove excess oil.

These liver meatballs are perfect to be served hot, alongside a side of mashed potatoes or a fresh salad. You can accompany them with a yogurt or mustard sauce for an extra flavor boost. Enjoy every bite and savor the delights you have created!
