saltthe amount depends on how salty the used broth is
Instructions
Rinse the liver under cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Peel away the thin outer membrane, if there is any. Cut the meat into cubes about 1 inch (2.5 cm) in size. Peel the onion and chop finely. Dice the bacon.
Heat the lard or cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Put in the chopped onion and bacon. Fry until golden brown while stirring.
Add the liver cubes and sauté, constantly stirring, until the liver has a brownish crust on the surface. It takes about 3-5 minutes.
Flour the liver pieces through a sieve to prevent flour lumps from forming. Keep stir-frying for about a minute, but no longer.
Pour in the vegetable broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a third, cover with a lid, and let it simmer for 15 minutes. During cooking, stir the mixture once or twice.
Finally, pepper and add salt to taste; stir and serve!
Notes
Makes 2 large or up to 4 small servings.
SERVING: A classic side dish for sautéed pork liver with sauce is steamed rice. When serving, add finely chopped green spring onions—you'll get a light and healthy meal packed with vitamins and minerals!
Before cooking, do not salt the liver! When salted, the liver hardens and loses softness when sautéed. Only season the sauce at the end of cooking.
Serve the liver immediately after you cook it. As the dish cools, the liver stiffens and loses its tenderness. For this reason, the dish is also not suitable for freezing.
