That is, grease the frying pan with oil, pour in the dough, fry the liver pancake first on one side, turn over and fry the second side. We stack the finished cakes and prepare a layer for the cake. Peel the garlic, pass it through a garlic press and mix with mayonnaise. Wash the tomatoes and cut into thin circles. Assemble the cake by stacking the skins on top of each other and generously spreading them with garlic mayonnaise. Place tomato slices between the layers. Grind the cheese into cheese shavings and sprinkle the cake. You can leave the cake as is and decorate it with green peas, olives, tomatoes and fresh herbs. Or you can put the cheese-sprinkled cake in the oven and bake until the cheese melts and a crispy cheese crust forms.
