Egg and ox liver curry with samp and beans recipe
Whilst ox liver curry may not appear on the menu at your favourite Indian restaurant, it is a proper old-school Indian and Pakistani dish.
Ox liver is affordable, filling, and packed with iron and protein. In a curry, it takes on spice beautifully and softens into the sauce rather than turning tough. Recipe compliments of KOO.
Prep: 30 minutes | Cook: 55 minutes | Serves: 4
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons oil
- 1 onion, chopped
- 1 kg ox liver, trimmed and sliced
- 4 eggs
- 4 tomatoes, grated

- 2 tins KOO Samp and Beans
Method
- Heat the oil in a large pan and fry the onion until soft.

- Serve the curry hot with samp and beans on the side.
