Liver and Onions
Someone asked me a while back about kidney dishes, and although I am not mad for off, I decided to try this liver with onions dish. It was really tasty and very rich but I will definitely make it again as a starter or meze type meal. I will also add a bit of chili next time.
What you need
500g calfs liver
Flour
3 large onions sliced
1 heaped tablespoon butter
3 tablespoons olive oil
Salt
Pepper
Chopped parsley
The process
It is important to remove the skin from the liver ( be patient and use a very sharp knife)
Slice into thin strips as if you were making a stir fry. Place about a cup of flour in a bowl and add the liver strips then pour the whole lot into a sieve and shake it about to coat the pieces well and the excess flour will run out.
Add the butter and oil in a large pan over a medium heat and cook the onions until they are soft and remove from the pan.
Add a little extra oil, add the liver strips and cook, stirring constantly until the liver changes color 3-4 minutes or so.
Add back the onions then add the parsley and cook for another 2-3 minutes stirring constantly, season with salt and pepper before serving.
Warm crusty bread and further drizzle of olive oil and you have a really nice starter. If you like this type of food try the sausages meal, you will love it.

Food often brings back good memories for me too. I’m doing great, thanks for asking. Winding down a bit after a really hectic year and looking forward to a liitle sun on my now lilly white body. Are you planning to head for the seaside?
Hmm haven’t had this since my Gran was alive she always made it for me a true English dish, thanks for the recipe, been a long time since I have been here, how are you doing Graham??
Oh, and it looks every bit as good as in the picture.
haha, quite right Susan had liver on the brain. I will amend. Thats it, it all about trying it out and them making it to your own tastes. Thanks for visiting.
This recipe is absolutley worthwhile. However there is a slight mistake – near to the end you should be adding the onions back not the liver (otherwise it’ll be a just liver dish).
I’m new at eating liver and this dish is just a winner.
Creative cooks can even play around with it a bit.
DIVINE!!
