Liver (Lamb or Veal)

Ingredients

Lamb (or veal)liver 500g

Puff pastry 1 sheet

Egg yolks 2

Onion 1

Mushrooms 1 cup

Salt, pepper

Oil 2 tbsp

Butter 2 tbsp

Method

Slice the liver in half lengthwise, season, place in a frypan and sear in hot oil for a couple of minutes on each side.  Remove from the pan and allow to cool.

Finely chop the mushrooms and onion and add to the same frypan with the butter.  Cook for a few minutes and season to taste.  Place a sheet of puff pastry on your bench, add half of the partly cooked liver and spread some of the mushroom mixture evenly over the top.  Follow with the other half of the liver and then the remainder of the mushroom mixture on top of that again.  Fold the puff pastry over, place in a non-stick baking dish, brush with the egg yolks and bake in a moderate oven (200-220 deg) for about 30 minutes.
