Ingredients
Scale
- 2 beef livers (around ½ kilo)
- 2 tablespoons butter or olive oil
- 1 large red or yellow onion, sliced
- ½ teaspoon salt + 1 pinch
- 1 tablespoon lemon or lime juice
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
- 1-2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- black pepper
- 1-2 tablespoons flour (optional)
Instructions
- Heat olive oil or butter in the skillet. Add the onions and cook over medium heat to caramelize. Stir them occasionally to ensure they cook evenly. Once cooked to your desired level of doneness, transfer the onions from the skillet to a platter and set aside.
- Using the same pan, add and cook the beef liver in batches, seasoning them with salt and black pepper. This will help enhance the natural flavors of the liver.
- Add juice of lime or lemon and sugar (if using) and let simmer for a minute, then add oyster sauce. Stir once.
- Return half of the caramelized onions to the pan with the beef liver and stir once. Transfer to a serving dish and top with the rest of the caramelized onions.
