    Add the onion and fry for 20 minutes, stirring, until the onion is caramelized.
    ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
    💡Add by cooking time: what needs long (onion, carrot, meat) goes in first, and what burns fast (garlic, dry spices) goes in last, only until fragrant.
  4. 4
    Add the liver over high heat and fry 3–4 minutes per side. Don't overcook: the liver should stay pink inside.
    ⚙ Adding to the hot fat and fryingStove
    💡Liver is fried fast over high heat: it browns outside and stays pink and tender inside. One more minute in the pan and it turns hard and grainy.
  5. 5
    Sprinkle the cumin, paprika, salt and black pepper over the liver and stir.
  6. 6
    Add the wine and honey and cook 2 minutes more, stirring.
