In the original Italian dish, Fegatelli di maiale, the pork liver is typically marinated in Italian herbs and spices and then grilled. However, in this Dutch adaptation, we use a blend of traditional Dutch spices to infuse the liver with a distinct flavor. Additionally, the Italian dish is often served with a side of grilled vegetables, while the Dutch version is accompanied by tangy apple sauce to add a touch of sweetness to the dish.

- Pork liver — Make sure to trim any excess fat from the liver before marinating and cooking. This will help enhance the texture and prevent any unpleasant flavors.
Tips & Tricks
- Soak the skewers in water for 30 minutes before threading the pork liver to prevent them from burning on the grill.
