An economical and tasty appetizer that you can adapt to your taste by experimenting with the filling. You will surprise guests with new flavor combinations by adding mushrooms, carrots, or onions.


The filling can be made with mushrooms, carrots, and onions instead of cheese. Use processed cheese or hard cheese, or combine both. Add starch to the batter for extra tenderness.


The liver must be thoroughly washed and cleaned of films. Thin pancakes are achieved by evenly distributing the batter over a hot skillet. Chilling in the refrigerator for at least an hour helps the cake maintain its shape better.


Use room temperature milk for a smooth batter. Add eggs last for smoothness. Grate cheese on a fine grater just before use.


Constantly grease the pan with oil for thin pancakes. Flip the pancake only when the top is fully set. Store the cake in the refrigerator under plastic wrap.
