• Also, starch or grits (buckwheat or rice) are often used as a thickener. Added cereals necessarily boil until fully cooked. • The cutlets from the liver alone are slightly dry and dark. To add richness and more pleasant color, vegetables are added to the liver mass. Put them raw or slightly passer in fat.
• Liquid cutlet mass for frying is spread on the pan with a spoon, which is dipped in water each time. Minced liver with the addition of croup is molded by hand.

• If you still cooked the chops, stew them a little in a double boiler. They will become softer and juicier.
• Heat oil well in a pan. In an insufficiently heated fat, the liquid hepatic mass will dissolve.
