You'll need

  • Chicken livers400g
  • Onions3
  • Gravy granules30g
  • Potatoes1kg
  • Butter50g
  • Milk100ml

Salt, pepper and oil from the cupboard. Amounts are for four; the app scales them for you.

Method

  1. Boil the potatoes (1kg) (15 min) and mash with butter (50g) and warm milk (100ml).

    Kitchen note For mash, steam-dry the drained potatoes in the pan for a minute, then mash with warm milk and butter. Cold milk makes it gluey.

  2. Meanwhile fry the sliced onions (3) slowly until soft and brown (15 min). Lift out.

    Kitchen note Take your time with onions. Low heat and a pinch of salt for a good 8 to 10 minutes until soft and sweet. Rushed onions stay sharp and crunchy.

  3. Pat the livers (400g) dry and fry quickly in a very hot pan, still a little pink in the middle (3 min).
  4. Put the onions back, add 300ml gravy and bubble for a minute. Serve on the mash.

    Kitchen note If the gravy's lumpy, push it through a sieve and nobody will ever know.

Can't find something? Doesn't matter. Swap it for something similar, it'll still be delish.
