• While onions are frying, core apples, and slice into a half-moon shape.
• Once onions are cooked, remove them from the skillet and temporarily place them in a different dish. Add a tablespoon of ghee to the same pan, add apples to the pan and fry for 2-3 minutes till slightly soft. Remove apples, add to the same dish with onions.
• Add one more tablespoon of ghee to the still-hot skillet, using kitchen scissors cut liver into large cubes, fry constantly stirring for 5-7 minutes. Once the liver is cooked, add onions and apples, add salt, apple cider vinegar, stir well.

FRIED LIVER WITH ONIONS AND APPLES

Steps:

• Peel onions and apples. Remove apple core with a corer and cut apples into 1 cm (approximately 1/2 inch) thick slices. Cut onions into rings and mix with 1 tablespoon flour.
• Trim veal liver of skin and sinews, rinse, pat dry, coat with flour and season with salt and pepper. Heat 4 tablespoons oil in a pan and saute onion rings while stirring until golden brown. In a second pan heat 30 grams (approximately 1 ounce) of butter and fry apple slices over low heat until soft. Remove onions from the pan and drain on paper towel. Heat remaining oil and butter and fry liver slices for 1-2 minutes per side. Remove from the pan, place liver on a platter, cover with apple slices and garnish with onion rings. Pour veal stock in the liver pan, bring to a boil and stir in parsley. Spread hot veal stock over livers. Serve with mashed potatoes if desired.

• Meanwhile, dredge liver slices in flour. In another pan, fry liver briefly on both sides. Season with pepper and salt (if the liver is seasoned before cooking, or if it is cooked too long, it will be tough). Serve liver with apple rings and shallot.

CALF'S LIVER WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• In a large skillet cook the bacon over moderate heat until it is crisp, transfer it to paper towels to drain, and pour off all but 2 tablespoons of the fat. To the fat remaining in the skillet add 2 tablespoons of the butter and cook the onions in the fat over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until they are softened and light golden. Add the apples, cored and cut into eighths, and cook the mixture until the apples are light golden. Add the vinegar, the sugar, and the wine, bring the mixture to a boil, and boil it for 3 minutes, or until it is thickened. Transfer the mixture to a heated platter.
• In the skillet, cleaned, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons butter over high heat until the foam subsides and in it sauté the liver, patted dry, turning it, for 3 to 4 minutes, or until it is browned and slightly pink within. Arrange the liver over the apple mixture, sprinkle the bacon, crumbled, and the chopped parsley over it, and garnish the platter with the parsley sprigs and the lemon wedges.

CHICKEN LIVER PATE CROCK WITH APPLES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Place chicken livers in a bowl and pour the milk over them. Allow to stand at room temperature for at least two hours. Drain and rinse.
• Melt 4 tbl. butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add livers and cook, stirring, for about 4 minutes, or until livers are brown all over and still pink in the center. Remove livers with a slotted spoon to a food processor.
• Return pan to the heat and stir in onions. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes, or until softened. Stir in apples and cook for 3 minutes longer, until slightly soft. Remove from heat and scrape into the workbowl with the livers.

• Note: the first time I made this was for a bridal shower. I had failed to notice the chilling period, and ended up putting the pate warm from the processor on the table. The ladies wolfed it down in record time, so be guided.
• Note2: Do not under ANY circumstances use margarine in place of butter.
• Note3: I sometimes add about 1/4 teaspoons ground allspice.
