Ingredients
1tsp.
vegetable or sunflower oil
2
shallots, finely chopped
250g
chestnut mushrooms, sliced
350g
calves' liver, cut into strips
25ml
brandy, optional
1Tbsp.
wholegrain mustard
150g
half-fat crème fraîche
150g
2% fat Greek yogurt
large handful baby spinach leaves
Directions
Step 1
Heat the vegetable or sunflower oil in a large frying pan and gently fry the shallots for 5min. Turn up the heat to high and add the chestnut mushrooms. Fry for 5min, or until the mushrooms have released their moisture, are tender and the pan is almost dry again.
Step 2
Add the liver and fry, stirring occasionally, for 5min. Carefully add the brandy, if using, then stir in the mustard, crème fraîche and yogurt. Heat through (do not boil), then stir in the spinach and check the seasoning.
Serve with mashed potatoes or rice.
If you’re not partial to liver, replace with strips of sirloin or beef fillet, chicken or turkey breast, or pork fillet.
