Liver Cake Mark Two

1 pot frozen chicken livers - defrosted (find chicken easier than lamb as they don't break the liquidizer!)
lots of garlic (about three cloves)
plain flour - white or wholemeal
1 v large egg or 2 large/medium ones

1. Bung chicken livers and all the blood into liquidizer and blitz, add chopped garlic and blitz a bit more, add egg and give another mix.
2. Pour glutinous mess into mixing bowl
3. Add plain flour bit at a time and mix with plastic spatula until the mixture starts to come away from the sides of the bowl - quite a thick mixture. Plastic spatula does not absorb the garlic like wooden spoon.
4. Dollop into tupperware/microwaveable container - mine are about 5" or 6" square and about 3" deep. Cover very lightly with lid or cling with holes in and microwave for about 4 mins. Time will vary according to your m/wave/size of eggs/thickness of mixture etc so trial and error until you get used to it. It usually rises up above the rim of the container but then shrinks back down as it cools.
5. Cool and cut into chunks - I cut mine into 6 pieces and put the lid on and bunged it in the freezer, then I can take out a chunk when I need it.

Liver Cake Mark Three

Leave to cool and cut into bite size pieces. (1/4-inch Square) It can be frozen into individual bags [enough for a couple of weeks of training]
