Preparation / Directions:


* Note: See the "Bruscandoli" recipe which is included in this collection. Drain calf's liver and pat dry. Cut into 1-inch thick pieces and season with salt and pepper and dredge in flour. In a 12- to 14-inch sauté pan over high flame, heat olive oil until smoking. Sauté liver pieces until dark golden-brown on both sides and remove to a plate. Add onions, carrot, celery, garlic and cloves and cook until softened, about 8 to 10 minutes. Add red wine, veal stock and lemon juice and reduce by half. Place liver and escaped juices back into pan with wine mixture. Add butter and simmer 8 to 10 minutes until liver is warmed through to medium. Garnish with lemon zest and serve with Bruscandoli.
