If you pour melted clarified butter to completely cover the top of the container and exclude all the air, this will keep for about 2 weeks (if you don't break the seal).
Ingredients
- 225g Butter
- 1 Large onion very finely chopped
- 1 Large clove of garlic crushed
- 450g Chicken livers
- 1 tablespoon Brandy
- Pinch Salt
- Pinch Pepper
Method
- 1. Melt half the butter in a large, heavy frying pan and gently fry the onion until soft and transparent.
- 2. Add the garlic and continue cooking for 1 further minute.
- 3. Discard any discoloured pieces of liver as they will be bitter. Rinse under water.
- 4. Add the livers to the pan and fry, turning to brown them lightly on all sides, until cooked. Flame the brandy and add to the livers.
- 5. When the flames subside, add salt and plenty of pepper.
- 6. Mince the mixture or liquidize in a blender or food processor with the remaining butter.
- 7. Put it into an earthenware dish or pot.
