- 1
In a bowl, combine the cubed liver with chopped onion, minced garlic, cumin, coriander, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Mix well to ensure the liver is evenly coated with the spices.
- 2
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the seasoned liver and sauté for about 5-7 minutes, until lightly browned on all sides. This step helps to render some of the fat and begin the cooking process.
- 3
Remove the liver from the pan and let it cool slightly. Once cool enough to handle, wrap each piece of liver with a strip of caul fat, securing it tightly.
- 4
Thread the wrapped liver pieces onto the soaked wooden skewers, leaving a small space between each piece.
- 5
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Grill the skewers for about 3-5 minutes per side, or until the caul fat is crispy and the liver is cooked through but still tender. Be careful not to overcook the liver.
- 6
Serve the Boulfaf skewers hot, perhaps with a side of couscous or a fresh salad.
đĄ Proffstips
- âEnsure the caul fat is fresh and clean. Rinse it under cold water and pat dry.
- âDo not overcook the liver, as it can become tough.
- âAdjust the spice blend to your preference. Some variations may include a pinch of chili for heat.
