Ingredients

🍖 1 pound beef liver, sliced into steaks
🥛 1 cup milk (for soaking)
🥣 1 cup all-purpose flour
🧂 1 teaspoon salt
🌶️ 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
🧄 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
🌶️ 1/2 teaspoon paprika
🧈 1/4 cup vegetable oil or butter for frying
🧅 1 large onion, thinly sliced
🥣 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
💧 2 cups water
🥄 1 tablespoon beef bouillon paste (or 2 cubes)
🧂 Salt and pepper to taste
🍚 2 cups cooked white rice
🥕 1 can (15 oz) corn and carrot mix, drained

Instructions

1- Prepare the Liver:

• Rinse the liver slices and place them in a bowl.
• Cover with milk and let soak for at least 30 minutes to help reduce any strong flavors. Drain and pat dry with paper towels.

2- Coating for the Liver:

• In a shallow dish, combine the flour, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika.
• Dredge each liver steak in the flour mixture, ensuring they are well-coated.

3- Cook the Liver Steaks:

• Heat the vegetable oil or butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
• Once hot, add the liver steaks. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.

4- Make the Onion Gravy:

• In the same skillet, add the sliced onions. Sauté until they become soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir well to coat. Cook for about 1 minute to remove the raw flour taste.
• Gradually add the water, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Add the beef bouillon paste and stir until it dissolves.
• Allow the gravy to simmer for about 5 minutes, until it thickens. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

5- Serve:

• Place the liver steaks on a serving platter and pour the onion gravy over them.
• Serve with cooked white rice and the drained corn and carrot mix on the side.
