About liver

The liver is a very soft portion of goat/lamb and is a commonly made curry in every Muslim household. We often make kaleji gurde ka salan or kaleji masala as a side dish to chapati in breakfast and is also a useful recipe to be made during festivals like bakrid.

This recipe is quite simple but it's yummy and delicious that one cannot resist to have more of it. It goes well with both roti and rice.

It is also a healthy dish as lamb liver is very good for health and mutton liver benefits are plenty such as lamb liver is high in Vitamin A and includes ingestion of good quality protein.. It is good for increasing haemoglobin levels in the blood and many more.

About liver and recipe

We usually refer to mutton liver recipe in Hyderabad as kaleji ka salan and hope this recipe of mine is liked by my readers...

Mutton Liver is very soft in texture and slippery but this portion of the lamb is one of my favorites as it is healthy too. Making mutton liver fry mainly with pepper fry gives the best flavor . It can also be used to make liver curry.

If one does not like to pressure cook, then liver can also be made in a handi or a vessel and slow cooked for about 25 to 30 minutes without pressure cooking. It gives a good gravy if slow cooked by covering the lid on low flame.

This is just one of the various ways kaleji can be made and shall try to post various curry recipes or gravy recipes that can be made with mutton liver.

Kaleji is a good source of iron and is very good for health and this does not take much time to cook... We can just boil the mutton liver and fry in some basic spices and have it as kaleji fry which tastes really good and easy to make recipe.

One can stir fry the liver but, I feel doing so does not help the liver in cooking from inside and therefore, in this recipe I have pressure cooked the liver with spices.

I have now shared and updated this recipe with a video method as well and hope my top blog post is loved by all my viewers with the video recipe.

Step by step procedure

In a pressure cooker, add oil and heat it and then add sliced onions and cook the onions until they turn slight brown in colour.

cooking the onions until they turn slight brown in colour

Add ginger-garlic paste and saute few minutes to get rid of the raw smell.

Adding ginger-garlic paste and sauteing few minutes

Add mutton liver into it.

roast it well until the colour is changed. This is an important step and if not roasted well the liver tastes raw and not suitable to consume.

Add salt as per taste, add red chilli powder, turmeric powder and mix well.

Cook the masala gravy until oil starts leaving the sides. Here, cooking the masala on low heat for a while is essential.

Cooking the masala gravy until oil starts leaving

Add little water or add as per consistency required. I prefer a semi gravy and not too thin kaleji masala and therefore, adding little water.

pressure cook for about 3-4 whistles. If not willing to pressure cook then slow cook the mutton liver for about 20-25 minutes and it turns soft easily.

Switch off the flame. Reduce the steam and remove the pressure cooker lid.

Add garam masala powder, add black pepper powder and coriander leaves. These spices and herbs are highly important which make the curry delicious.

Cook on sim flame for about 4-5 minutes. If there is any water remaining cook for some more time until the water is absorbed.

Mix well. Switch on the flame.
