This is a traditional Albanian dish. I changed it a little to my tasting. You may also try this with veal bites.

Steps

1

Heat the oil with the pepper flakes. Cut the liver into bite size pieces.
2

Place the liver in the pan and let it brown. Also preheat the oven at 400º F/ 200ºC. (This dish will be finished in the oven.)
3

Next add the garlic, oregano, thyme and pepper. Stir them in a few times, once the aroma is released add the wine.
4

Once the wine has been absorbed, add the tomato puree. If using paste add some water, about half cup. Let simmer for a couple of minutes.
5

Next add the ricotta and the salt. Incorporate all together and let simmer for a few more minutes.
6

Take two single servings oven dishes, preferably terracotta dishes. Divide the liver evenly on each. Drizzle some more oil and place in the oven for 10-15 minutes, till it gets brown and sizzling.
7

Be cautious when taking out of the oven. Best to place the dish on a plate. May garnish with some parsley and you need to have it with bread. Enjoy!
