Today I propose to prepare a tasty and nutritious Romanian dish – drob. Traditionally, a lamb or a ram was slaughtered on Easter. Of course, in addition to meat, offal remained. Sausages, soups and meat rolls were made from them.

Liver, lungs, spleen, heart and kidneys are usually used for the drob. Be sure to add onions, greens, raw and boiled eggs and bread soaked in water or milk to the minced meat. Then the minced meat is wrapped in an oil seal. The drob is placed on a baking sheet and baked in the oven until done. There are many variations of this popular Romanian dish, today the menu includes chicken liver drob.

The dish turns out to be very tasty, filling and tender. The drob looks impressive when cut, so it will become a decoration of the festive table.

The liver is considered a storehouse of nutrients. There is practically no fat in it, and in terms of protein volume it is in no way inferior to chicken breast. In many countries, liver is considered a delicacy and is regularly included in your diet. I suggest making delicious and healthy snack muffins from offal. For the recipe I used chicken liver, it is more tender.

Thanks to vegetables, liver muffins turn out very juicy and aromatic. Baking in portioned molds gives the appetizer an appetizing appearance and simplifies serving. Muffins taste like liver cutlets, but they are more tender and have less calories. They will not harm your figure; for the dough, instead of wheat flour, we will use oatmeal. In my opinion, this is a versatile snack. It will diversify the daily menu and will decorate the holiday table. Liver muffins are best served hot. They go well with any side dish. A great addition would be cranberry or any other sweet and sour sauce.
