In case you haven’t heard, liver really is a SUPERFOOD! Chocked full of vitamin A, vitamin D, folate and protein, liver really is an underestimated source of goodness.

Many people squirm when it comes to eating liver, but this week we’ve enlisted the help of one of our amazing clients; Samantha Cooper, to prove that liver can actually taste fantastic! Samantha, who was diagnosed with Rheumatoid arthritis a few years ago, has totally changed her eating patterns and is embracing a whole new diet and way of life. This has had a dramatic effect on her health, and her swelling is now significantly reduced and her immunity has been given a ultra boost! 

Samantha’s recipe contains coconut cream, panchetta and fresh green herbs –  we’re are sure you’ll be making this recipe at your next dinner party. 

Ingredients

3 x Rashers pancetta

1 x Red onion

1 x Pack organic chicken livers

Sprig of Thyme

Brandy

Salt

Pepper

100ml Coconut Milk/Cream

Preparation

Cook pancetta on high heat in a pan until crispy. Remove the pancetta, lower the heat and sauté onions in the remaining fat until softened. Turn up the heat and add the chicken livers. Cook the livers on one side till slightly browned and turn. Add thyme and a good swig of brandy and the cooked pancetta. Simmer until livers  are cooked through, there should still be a fair amount of liquid in the pan. Transfer the livers into a blender or bullet. Add coconut milk/cream and blitz until the mixture is smooth consistency. Transfer mixture into a container to cool… and voila… your dairy free pâté is done!

“I was diagnosed a couple of years ago with rheumatoid arthritis and thinking along ‘conventional’ lines went to a rheumatoid specialist. She assured me that there was no link between diet and the disease and put me on medication. After a year of trying a stack of different drugs that made me feel terrible and didn’t work it was time to try another tack and was recommended to Kaytee. To say she has changed my life would be an understatement. We started off doing 6 weeks of the HCG diet which not only changed my eating patterns but had the added bonus if shedding 10kgs. Since then I have remained gluten/dairy/sugar free and cut out a few other things that my immune system was reacting to and we are working on healing my gut. The results have been quite dramatic… I am no longer on any nasty medications and my joint pain and swelling have gone down dramatically… thank you Kaytee!”
