  • Immerse the liver pieces in the mixture of water and vinegar for 8 to 10 minutes. After 10 minutes stir the mixture again and then drain off the water. Now pour the fresh water and wash the liver cubes and drain off. Continue this process until the clean water flows.

Frying the Beef Liver

  • Turn the flame to low and pour the cooking oil into the frying pan or skillet and let it become hot.
