Instructions

1

Rinse the lamb liver thoroughly under cold water, pat completely dry, and cut into small, even pieces to ensure quick, uniform cooking.

2

In a mixing bowl, combine the liver with lemon juice, salt, black pepper, and turmeric. Toss well, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for about 15 minutes to lightly season and tenderize.

3

Heat the olive oil in a wide skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering but not smoking.

4

Add the marinated liver in a single layer. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the pieces are fully cooked and lightly golden on the outside, about 6–8 minutes.

5

Transfer the hot liver to a serving platter. Top with the sliced onion and finish by sprinkling sumac evenly over the dish.

6

Serve immediately while hot, ideally with flatbread or fresh herbs.
