Homemade Liver and Bacon with Onions Recipe


Portions: Two


Ingredients

  • 225g Lambs Liver
  • 2 TSP Plain Flour
  • 40g Butter
  • 1 Medium Onion
  • 3 Slices of Bacon chopped up in approx. 2cm squares
  • 250ml Beef Stock
  • 1 Squeeze of Tomato Puree
  • Salt and Pepper
  • Gravy Browning
  • Mashed Pototoes


Instructions

  1. Rinse the live under a cold tap (I use a sieve so you don't lose any down the sink)


  2. Dry the rinsed liver with some kitchen towel and put to one side in a bowl
  3. If not already sliced, slice the liver in to strips and trim off any bits you don't want
  4. Put the flour in a bowl and add a sprinkling of salt and pepper and give it a stir


  5. Add the sliced liver to the flour mix and lightly coat it


  6. Melt half of the butter in a frying pan and add the liver (ensure you tap off any excess flour as you'll need this later)


  7. Fry the liver for 1-2 minutes a side and then place on a plate for later
  8. Add the rest of the butter to the frying pan
  9. Add in the onion and gently fry until golden and soft


  10. Add the chopped up bacon to the pan and gently fry for around 5 minutes (we're looking for soft bacon not crispy)


  11. Pour in the hot stock and bring to a simmer


  12. Add a squirt of tomato puree
  13. When the stock has turned in to a thick gravy add a (very) tiny amount of gravy browning



  14. Now add the liver and cook gently for 2-3 minutes until it's nice and hot


Serving Suggestion(s)

Liver and Bacon with Onions goes fantastically well with simple mashed potato but I had some frozen Rumbledethumps in the freezer so I cooked that in the microwave and served it with that!
