Bacon Wrapped Beef Liver Roulade - Stuffed with Spinach & Feta Cheese

This recipe for bacon wrapped beef liver roulade, stuffed with spinach & feta cheese, is super delicious and easy to make. The flavors complement each other perfectly. In addition, it's a very nutrient dense and therefore satiating dish. Of course, you could also use other stuffings

CourseMain Dish
Keywordbacon wrapped, beef, feta cheese, liver, organ meat, oven baked, roulade, spinach, stuffed stuff

Servings2 roulades

Prep Time10 minutes

Cook Time30 minutes

Ingredients

300gram beef liver2 pieces
100gram spinachpre-cooked
100gram feta cheesecut into dices or cuboids
200gram baconabout 16 slices

Seasonings

1pinch Salt
1pinch Pepper
1pinch Cayenne pepperoptional

Instructions

First, preheat your oven to 170°C (340°F)
Put the beef liver on a cutting board and beat the pieces with a meat hammer to make them flatter. You don't need to flip them, it is enough if you just hit from one side. Also, make sure that you don't hit too hard as the meat already is pretty tender and you don't want to create holes
Next, add the seasonings, also from one side only - this will be the inside. Then, spread the spinach (e.g. with a spoon) on the pieces
Afterwards, put the feta cheese on top. Place it centered and only on one half of the liver pieces. This way it is easier to roll them up
Now, roll the liver up. Start on the side with the cheese to make sure it is in the center of the roulade
After that, create a bacon weave of 4-5 slices on top of each roulade. Lift each one up with one hand while wrapping the bacon around the bottom with the other hand
If you have small packets, wrap another layer of bacon around them to make sure everything is nicely wrapped without any big gaps and place the roulades on a baking tray with parchment paper
Finally, put the baking tray into the oven and bake the roulades for 25-30 minutes until the bacon becomes brown and crispy

Recipe Notes

You probably could skip the meat hammer step if your beef liver pieces already are pretty flat (about 0.5cm / 0.2in of thickness).

If they are way too thick, lay them on the cutting board.
Then, cut from one side with a sharp knife until you nearly reached the end of the other side.
Now, you can simply fold out the pieces and have thinner ones.

At step 3 I used frozen spinach which I thawed & pre-cooked in the microwave for about 3 minutes while beating up the liver:

Of course, you may also use different stuffings.

One idea that I've had was pizza stuffing with tomato paste or fresh tomatoes, mozzarella cheese & Italian / Mediterranean herbs (oregano, rosemary, thyme). Maybe with some additional ground beef, pepperoni, fried chicken or even pulled pork.

Easy Liver Burger – With Beef Liver & Chicken Hearts

Easy Liver Burger - With Beef Liver & Chicken Hearts

These beef liver burger are easily prepared within only 30 minutes. In addition, they taste delicious and are packed with valuable and essential nutrients due to the organ meats containing multiple vitamins as well as iron, copper and choline which is important for brain development and liver function.

CourseMain Dish
Keywordbeef, burger patty, chicken hearts, dairy free, fried meat, liver, organ meat, pan fried, under 30 minutes, zero carb

Servings6 patties

Prep Time2 minutes

Cook Time20 minutes

Ingredients

300gram beef liverroughly cut pieces
300gram chicken hearts
1 eggs

Seasonings

1teaspoon Salt
1teaspoon Pepper
1teaspoon Cumin

Instructions

First, put the beef liver, chicken hearts & all seasonings into your food processor
Then, mince everything for about 30 seconds, add the egg and mince again for a few seconds until everything is mixed. To give the burgers a better consistency you may also add 1-2 tablespoons of coconut / almond flour or psyllium husk powder at this step
Now, add some coconut oil or your preferred fat for frying to a pan and heat it up to low-medium heat. A non-stick pan would be perfect. In case you don't have one make sure to use enough fat to prevent sticking
Next, use a spoon to put blobs of the meat mixture -with about 0.8 centimeters (about 1/3 inch) of thickness- into the pan
Let the burgers fry slowly, for about 10 minutes, before flipping to make sure that they don't fall apart. It is easiest to wait until they start to become solid and coloured on their top's edges
After flipping, fry for another 5-10 minutes until the burgers have reached your desired color. I like them to be more on the dark brown side
