Pan-fried liver

Ingredients

  • Liver (Beef or Lamb): 500g (cut into small cubes or strips)
  • Onions: 2 to 3 medium (finely sliced)
  • Green sauce (Nokoss): 1 to 2 tbsp. tbsp (the essential aromatic blend of Senegal)
  • Vinegar: 1 tbsp. tbsp
  • Mustard: 1 tbsp. tbsp
  • Black pepper: According to your taste
  • Salt or Broth: According to your taste
  • Oil: 3 to 4 tbsp. tbsp
  • Pepper: ½ (cut into thin strips, optional for color)

Instructions

1. Clean and marinate the liver

  • Rinse the liver quickly with a little vinegar and water to remove excess blood, then pat dry with paper towels.
  • In a bowl, marinate the liver with the Green sauce (Nokoss), mustard, black pepper and a little salt. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes if you have time.

2. Sear the liver

  • Heat the oil in a large frying pan high heat.
  • Add the liver pieces in a single layer. Quickly grab them for about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Note: Do not overcook the liver at this stage or it will become tough and rubbery. Remove the liver from the pan and set aside on a plate.

3. Prepare the onion sauce

  • In the same pan (keeping the flavored oil), add the sliced onions.
  • Saute the onions until they become translucent and lightly browned.
  • Add the vinegar and a small splash of water to deglaze the pan and create a light sauce. Add the peppers now if using them.

4. Mix

  • Return the cooked liver (and its juices) to the pan with the onions.
  • Mix everything for a while 1 to 2 minutes so that the flavors mix well.

5. Final seasoning

  • Taste and adjust salt or stock. The sauce should be tasty and the onions should be slightly caramelized but still a little crunchy.
