Liver is a very healthy product, but you won’t see it often in our diet. This is because many people don’t know what to cook with it. Usually it is fried or stewed. In this recipe, we suggest you cook pork liver pancakes. And perhaps this dish will become a regular on your table. Pork liver is as nutritious and healthy as beef, but it is more affordable. The most important thing when cooking it is to pre-soak it in milk to get rid of excess bitterness.
