Ingredients

  • 500 g beef liver (cubed)
  • 30 g butter
  • 2 medium onions
  • 380 g California Calrose rice
  • 840 ml hot water
  • Spices (Salt, Black pepper, Thyme, Cinnamon) to taste
  • For the top: 200 g coarsely crushed California walnut and 15 g butter

Preparation

  • Add the liver and butter to the pot first; sauté over medium-high heat for 4–5 minutes.
  • Then add the onion and continue sautéing together for 3–4 minutes until the onions slightly soften.
  • While the livers are sautéing, add the spices and stir for 1 minute.
  • Add the washed California Calrose rice to the liver mixture and sauté together for 2–3 minutes.
  • Add enough hot water to cover it and close the lid. Cook on low heat for 12–15 minutes until the water is absorbed.
  • In a small pan, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and sauté the California walnuts for 2–3 minutes until they take on a light color without burning.
  • After removing the California Calrose rice from the heat, let it brew for 10 minutes, then transfer to a serving plate and serve by drizzling the prepared hot buttered California walnuts over it.
