How To Cook Calf Liver | Good Housekeeping UK
- 5 years ago
Calves’ liver is most tender liver available and can be found on top restaurant menus. Find out how the chefs cook liver in our step-by-step video.
1. When buying calves’ liver, avoid ones that are dark in colour, slimy to touch or smell strongly.
2. Remove membrane from outside of liver. Without cutting too much of liver, snip out any noticeable tubes using kitchen scissors. If removing tubes and membrane leaves large holes in liver, you’ll find it easier to cook if cut into smaller pieces
3. It is important not to overcook liver or it will become rubbery and grainy. Like steak, liver is best quickly pan-fried. Heat a few cubes of butter in a frying pan over a high heat. When butter is foaming, add the calves liver. Season top with salt and pepper. Fry for about 2min on each side until browned on outside and just cooked all way through.
