  2. It's mutton liver (goat). Chicken liver is usually very small, so I prefer goat liver for this kind of fry. And for the cleaning part.... make sure you wash and rinse the liver cubes thoroughly in luke warm water. Change water 3-4 times till you see the water turning colorless. Surely the smell disappears and the fry tastes good.
