Receta Liver and Bacon with Onion Gravy
Decided to be extra brave and fill up on the best source of Iron-Liver!
Now, I have never eaten or cooked liver before so this was a first and I have to admit against all my expectations, it tasted Gorgeous!
This is not my recipe but an old traditional one I decided to try.
I did, however, add a splash of cream to the gravy that made it even more delicious. Nothing was left on the plate and I feel better for it too :)
