 * Method for Liver Plate

1) Saute the onions in olive oil until the onions begin to caramelize as shown. The pickled onions will not lose all of their crunch. Don't forget to season with salt.

2) Season the liver with salt and pepper and brown. I did this in batches

3) Puree in a blender or food processor* until smooth, taste for seasoning and adjust if necessary. I added more olive oil for a lighter, mousse like consistency and for the flavor.

4) Serve with flatbread or croutons.
