Baby Beef Liver

metallichick's Note:

I have always loved Liver, apparently iron deficiency will do that to you. Lucky my two and a half year old likes it too. My husband is the only one that doesn't, but he's okay with it since he gets steak whenever I make it, though he does eat the gravy I make from it and that's good enough for me.

• Total Time: 30 mins
• Prep Time: 5 mins
• Cook Time: 25 mins

Ingredients:

Serves: 4

Yield: 4.0 peices ...

Liver

• 4 pieces calf liver
• ¼ cup flour
• 1 large white onion
• ½ lb bacon
• 1 ½ cups white mushrooms
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ½ teaspoon pepper

Gravy

• 2 cups water
• 2 tablespoons beef bisto
• 2 cubes Oxo beef cubes
• 1 teaspoon pepper (Freshly Cracked)

Directions:

1. Slice Bacon into small pieces and fry in frying pan, until brown but not entirely crisp.
2. Mix the Flour, Salt and Pepper together.
3. Coat the Liver in the Flour mixture and fry in the Bacon grease until cooked through. (If you soak the liver in Milk for up to 1 day, it cuts down on the "metallic taste" that many people aren't fond of).
4. Slice the onions and the Mushrooms and place the Bacon back in the pan, fry until onions and mushrooms are cooked.
5. Add Pepper, Beef OXO and 1 1/2 Cups of water to the pan and bring to a boil.
6. Once boiling, add beef Bisto mixed with remaining water and boil until desired thickness.
