Tavë Dheu with beef liver and white cheese is a cuisine of Central Albania. It is a simple recipe to cook. Mainly, we serve it as a hot appetizer at family lunches where the menu is meat-based.
The recipe cooks partly in the pan to give the final cooking in the oven. I prefer to cook the part that belongs to the cooking procedure in the pan first. So, I have it ready to bake in the oven. In this way, I can bake it 15-20 minutes before we sit at the table to serve it hot.

Përgatitja
- First, we rinse the liver with running water and cut it into small pieces. It is best to cook fresh beef liver and not frozen.
- Next, chop the onion thinly and sauté it with little olive oil until it turns golden. Also, add the cut liver and continue cooking.
- Also, add salt and black pepper. As soon as the color changes, we will extinguish it with white wine.
- As well, add the tomato sauce, and after mixing it well, we will add enough water to cover the liver.
- Cook on low heat for 15 minutes.
- Furthermore, there should be juice when we add the dissolved flour to the cooked liver. We dissolve it in half a glass of cold water. Next, let it boil and see how thick it will be. Also, you can add a little water if it looks thick.
- Next, add the shredded cheese and dry oregano.
- We cook it as soon as it gets a boil and removes it from the fire. At the moment we will serve it, we throw it in one serving ceramic baking pan.
- Also, we will add some bay leaves and parmesan cheese on top. You can use any kashkaval cheese you prefer.
- Finally, transfer them to the oven preheated to 200 degrees and bake for 20 minutes. Serve as soon as you take it out of the hot oven.
