Method
- Cut the liver into thin slices, removing any tough inner tubes with a sharp knife, and season lightly with salt and pepper.
- Mix the breadcrumbs and parsley together, and place the flour on a plate. Dip the liver in the flour, then the egg, then coat in the breadcrumbs.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium to high heat. Cook half the liver for 45 seconds to 1 minute on each side. You are looking for the breadcrumbs to be lightly golden, with the centre of the liver a light pink – overcooking will cause the liver to become tough.
- Transfer the liver to a plate and cover with foil while you cook the second batch. Add a little extra oil to the pan if needed.
- Serve on a simple salad of lamb’s lettuce, radishes and a squeeze of lemon.
