Liver and Onions

"I grew up eating liver cooked this way, although without the onions, because this was the way Mum did it. I love it, and always have. Mum never liked onions, but once I married and left home, I learned to love them, so I just added them to the "recipe" - which by the way until now has never been written down."

directions

  • Slice and cook the onions in fry pan, using butter. Set aside, and keep warm.
  • Combine the flour, pepper and salt, mix well.
  • Coat the liver thoroughly in the flour mixture.
  • Cook in butter over medium heat, turning once - depending on thickness, about 5 minutes per piece. I always keep them warm in the oven, set on it's lowest heat, until all the liver is cooked.
  • When all done, reheat the onions in remaining butter.
  • Serve the onions on top of the liver.

  1. This is almost like mom used to make. I think the butter makes the difference. I added a little parsley to the onions, a few minutes before they were done. Try it if you like parsley. I haven't had liver and onions this good in many years!
     
  2. I enjoy Liver & onions and I like it done simply like your recipe. I added mushrooms and din't use any butter - just a spray of "No Oil" it was still delish

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I originally joined the site as "aussiekarin", but decided instead to go with my nickname - Kayne. Sorry if this causes any confusion! I moved to the US from Australia in 1970, and apart from three years in Germanyhave been here the whole time. However, still consider myself an Australian, although I was actually born in Holland. Since I come from such a diversified background, my cooking is rather strange at times. Many times it is a combiniation of Dutch, Aussie / English, German and American. I'm not really much of a cook, but enjoy it, nevertheless. I just wish I knew more and could do more - without a recipe! I'm retired now, so one of my goals is to really learn to cook. I intend to enjoy my retirement, doing what I never had time to do before. Since joining Recipezaar in November, 2006, I find that my cooking has changed somewhat. I'm more adventurous, willing to try new and more varied tastes, and combinations, and just about all of what I prepare is edible. Lately, due to a major life change, I've been letting my cooking go, but hopefully that will change one day. Oddly, I miss it, more than I ever thought I would!!!!!
