History
Drob, in its traditional form, is a dish that has its origins in the culinary customs of the holidays. Over time, it has evolved and developed many variations, with each area having its own unique recipe. It is a symbol of spring and rebirth and is associated with the celebration of Easter.
Preparation
1. Boiling the liver
Start by washing the pork liver under cold running water. Portion it into smaller pieces to cook evenly. Place in a large pot, add water and a pinch of salt, then bring to the boil. Let it simmer for about 1 hour, skimming off any scum that forms on the surface.
2. Cooking the rice
Heat a little oil in a frying pan and add finely chopped onion. Cook the onion until golden brown, then add the grated carrot. Deglaze with a little water and simmer for a few minutes. Add the rice and stir for a few minutes. Cover with water and simmer for 15-20 minutes, making sure the rice is not too soft. When ready, leave to cool.
3. Preparing the mixture
Once the liver has cooled, finely chop it using a food processor or blender. In a large bowl, combine the chopped liver, cooked rice, salt to taste, finely chopped green onion, chopped dill and parsley, eggs and oil. Blend well until smooth.
4. Baking the drob
Prepare two baking tins by lining them with baking paper. Pour the mixture into the molds, sprinkle the grated cheese, a few pieces of butter and the peeled and sliced cherry tomatoes, if you like. Preheat the oven to a low heat and bake the drob for 40 minutes, or until the cheese on top is browned.
5. Serving
Once the drob is ready, let it cool slightly before cutting. Serve warm or at room temperature with a fresh salad or pickles for a perfect contrast of flavors.
Possible variations
If you want to add a touch of creativity, try adding some chopped green or black olives to the drob mixture, or even some sautéed mushrooms for a richer flavor. You can also experiment with different meats, such as chicken or beef liver.
