Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
Letʼs prepare the ingredients according to the list. We wash the beef liver under running water, remove the film by making a small cut lengthwise and pulling it off with your finger. We cut the liver into small pieces, cut it into several layers, fold them in a pile and cut them along the middle, and then crosswise into pieces. If the liver is dark red in color, you can soak it in milk for about an hour. A good product will have a color ranging from dark red to brown.

Peel the onions and cut them into halves of rings or cubes. Pour vegetable oil into a frying pan with a thick bottom. Letʼs warm it up. Place the prepared onions in the oil. Fry it until transparent.

Roll the beef liver in flour, place it in a frying pan with the onions, fry it until lightly browned, stirring occasionally with a spatula so that the liver is fried on all sides until golden brown.
