Arnavut ciğeri

(Albanian-Style Liver)

Arnavut ciğeri (lit. Albanian-style liver) is a Turkish dish that is extremely easy to prepare. It consists of fried lamb liver and onions. The dish is typically seasoned with sumac, paprika, and black pepper. It is believed that arnavut ciğeri was invented during the time when the Ottomans ruled Albania, hence the name.


Fried liver and onions are traditionally served as a meze dish. In restaurants and taverns, it is usually served with oven-baked potato cubes on the side.
