Yes you can have liver, heart, kidney etc for free. As long as it hasn't got fat on it its free on EE/Red.

To thicken stuff it depends what you're cooking really.
If its a meat & veg type stew/casserole etc the onions/potato usually thicken it up enough once they are soft enough. You can always mash some of the potato up or whizz the onion in the processor.

If its a spicy dish the spices often thicken it up quite adequately, although again usually I whizz the onion, garlic, ginger mix in the processor before I chuck it in, makes the curry smoother too.

Other stuff like stock cubes, tomato puree all add a bit of thickening.

Or you can just add a little bit of cornflour if you need to, 1 syn for a level teaspoon.

Ooh I love offal! Nothing better than liver mmmmmm Hardly ever have it though, no butchers left round here and supermarkets dont sell it much.

Wow never thought of putting it in a curry though, what do you use?
