Steps:

• Place liver in a nonreactive (ceramic or glass) bowl and pour milk over. Refrigerate, covered, 5 to 6 hours.
• In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons butter over medium-high heat. When butter is shimmering, add onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent, 5 to 10 minutes.

• Heat a large (13-inch) saute pan over medium heat and add remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the oil and heat until shimmering. Cook (in batches, if necessary, to avoid crowding pan) until liver is firm (but not hard) and browned on the outside but still slightly pink in the center, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining liver, adding more oil to the pan as necessary. Add sage and cook for 1 minute more.

Add enough flour to make a small medium brown roux. Add chicken stock (or water) enough to make the roux a medium thickness. Be sure to boil this and sprinkle some garlic powder in it.
• Remove roux and in the same pan return liver, onions (regular and green) and roux. Cook on medium fire for about 15 minutes (stirring every 5 minutes) or so or until liver is done but not overdone.

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.

Steps:

• Sprinkle liver on both sides with salt and pepper.
• Dip pieces in flour to coat well on both sides. Shake off excess. Set aside.

• Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in heavy skillet and when hot add pieces of liver, a few at a time, in one layer. Cook 1 or 2 minutes on one side and turn. Cooking time will depend on thickness. Cook on second side 1 or 2 minutes. As pieces are cooked transfer to heated platter. Continue adding pieces and a little more oil to skillet as necessary, tablespoon at a time.
• Bring sauce to boil and pour onto liver. Serve with mashed potatoes or pureed cauliflower (see recipe).

Steps:

• Lay the liver slices down flat and rub 1/4 teaspoon salt, the turmeric, and 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper on both sides. Cover and set aside for 30 minutes. (All the other ingredients may be prepared at this time.)
• Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil into a nonstick frying pan and set on medium-high heat. When hot, put in the liver slices. Cook the first side until browned, about 1 1/2-2 minutes. Turn the slices over and cook the second side the same way. If you want the slices a bit more done, lower heat to medium and cook both sides 30-60 seconds more. Remove to a serving dish and keep warm.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the frying pan, still set over medium-high heat. When hot, put in the cumin seeds. Ten seconds later, put in the onions. Stir a few times and lower heat to medium. Stir and fry the onions 6-8 minutes or until they have softened a bit and browned slightly on the edges. Add the garlic and stir a few times. Now put in the mustard, tomato, green chili, black pepper, lemon juice, and 1/4-1/3 teaspoon salt. Stir and cook for a minute. Pour this sauce on top of the liver slices and serve.

Steps:

• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a heavy 8 or 10 inch skillet.
• Add onions and cook over moderate heat, for 7-8 minutes, stirring frequently.
• Stir in the sage, cook 2-3 minutes longer, until the onions are limp and lightly colored.

• Drop in the liver strips and saute them, turning frequently, for 2 or 3 minutes, or until they are lightly browned on all sides.
• Stir in the onions and cook with the liver for 1 or 2 minutes.
• Transfer the liver and onions to a heated platter.
• Immediately pour the white wine vinegar into the skillet and deglaze.
• Pour the sauce over the liver and onions and sprinkle with the chopped parsely.
• Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Trim away and discard any tough membranes in the liver slices. Cut the slices into thin strips about a quarter of an inch wide. Sprinkle with salt and pepper and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a small heavy skillet and add the onions. Cook, stirring often, over moderately high heat about 10 minutes or until onions are golden brown. Reduce heat as necessary. Do not allow the onions to burn or they will be bitter.
• When the onions are almost ready, heat a wide, heavy skillet and add two tablespoons of the corn oil. When hot and almost smoking, add half of the liver strips. Cook over high heat, turning the liver pieces so that they cook evenly. Cook about three minutes. Scoop out the pieces and transfer them to a warm serving dish.
• Heat the remaining two tablespoons of corn oil. When it is very hot, add remaining liver strips. Cook as before. Remove the liver and add to the initial batch.
• Pour off all fat from the skillet and wipe it out thoroughly. Return the skillet to the heat and add the butter and capers. Cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, about one minute. Add the liver and onions. Stir to blend well.
