Step-by-step instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 175°C.

2. 2

   Boil the rice in the water and milk until the rice is done - not all the liquid is vaporised, you should end up with a watery mixture. Cool.

3. 3

   Chop the onions finely and fry until soft.

4. 4

   In the cooled down rice-milk mixture, mix in the liver, onions, egg, raisins and the spices. The mixture should still be quite runny.

5. 5

   Pour the mixture into a buttered shallow oven dish, put some knobs of butter on top.

6. 6

   Bake for 1-1,5 h until brown.

7. 7

   This would traditionally be served with lingonberry jam, but any red tart jam like cranberry should be good.
