Calves' Liver with Onions & Crème Fraîche

SpringBeefServes 4

Ingredients

  • 4 slices calves' liver
  • 500g Spanish onions, very finely sliced
  • 50g butter
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 15 grindings black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon flour
  • 4 generous tablespoons crème fraîche
  • 1 large sprig fresh thyme

Method

  1. Mix the flour, pepper and salt in a large freezer bag, add the liver slices and shake gently to coat evenly.

  2. Melt the butter in a frying pan and add the liver and the thyme. Cook the liver for 30 seconds on each side then remove to a warm serving dish.

  3. Add the onions and cook down over a medium-to-low heat, stirring to prevent them sticking, until a dark golden colour.

  4. Remove the thyme, stir in the crème fraîche, return the liver to the pan, heat through and serve.
