A late-night classic in English pub cooking, this dish is made by coating thinly sliced beef liver in flour and quickly pan-frying it with caramelized onions. It takes practice to catch the right moment; overcooked liver becomes tough.

Step by Step

How to make it?

1

Caramelize the Onions

12 min

Melt half of the butter and cook the half-moon-sliced onion over low heat for 12 minutes, until golden. Set aside.

2

Coat the Liver in Flour

4 min

Season the thinly sliced beef liver with salt and black pepper, then coat it in flour.

3

Cook the Liver

2 min

Heat the remaining butter over high heat. Quickly sear the liver slices for 1 minute on each side.

4

Combine the Ingredients

2 min

Add the caramelized onion and beef broth. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes more, then serve hot.

Reminder

Do not turn the liver often after adding it to the pan; flipping before each side is cooked through can cause it to lose its juices and become tough. Allergens: wheat (gluten, flour) and dairy (butter).
