For all the recipes I publish to help my vegan and vegetarian friends, I need my meat!
The difference is that I tried to balance my diet as much as I can.
Mind you, if one keeps to good ingredients, it is quite easy.
Here is a simple recipe, both Japanese and Chinese in cocept, which has the merits to be bvery healthy, calorie-low and balanced.
Makes for a great snack with a beer!
Sauteed Liver with Garlic Stems

I love garlic stem. In Taiwan, people also stir fry with pressed bean curd(豆腐乾)or pork/salty pork, even Taiwanese sausage.

Definitely my dear Luiz!
But keep in mind that they wouldn’t need to be cut then!
