🛒 Ingredients

1 lb beef liver, sliced
2 large onions, thinly sliced
1 cup milk (for soaking)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Salt and pepper, to taste
2–3 tablespoons oil or butter (for frying)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

Soak the liver:
Place the beef liver slices in a bowl and cover with milk. Let soak for 30 minutes. This helps remove bitterness and makes the liver more tender.
Prepare the onions:
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil or butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until soft and caramelized. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Season and coat:
Drain the liver and pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper, then lightly coat each slice in flour.
Cook the liver:
Add remaining oil or butter to the skillet. Cook the liver slices for 2–3 minutes per side, until golden brown. Avoid overcooking to keep them tender.
Combine:
Return the onions to the skillet, gently mix with the liver, and cook for 1–2 more minutes.
