Pan-Fried Duck Liver

An elegant French dish that will impress your guests! Duck liver is a true delicacy with a wonderfully delicate flavor. I made this once and now I crave it all the time. Our homegrown quince turned out to be the perfect side for the duck liver — its flavor only enhances the liver's tenderness. You have to try it!

  • Let's begin: 1. Halve the quince, remove the core, and cut it into even wedges. 2. In a hot skillet, fry the quince on both sides in butter until golden (keep the heat low). 3. Take the quince out and add the onion, sliced into thin half-moons. Fry the onion in butter until lightly golden. 4. Make the salad: shred the iceberg lettuce, peel the tangerine and break it into segments, and toss together. 5. Make the sauce in a separate bowl: whisk a couple of tablespoons of olive oil with the balsamic vinegar and pomegranate juice, and season with salt, pepper, and sugar to taste. Mix everything well. 6. Remove the onion from the skillet and cook the liver in the same pan: sear it for one minute per side. Work quickly, or the liver will dry out. 7. Arrange the salad around the edges of the plate, set a few quince wedges on one side, place the liver in the center, and tuck a little fried onion over it. For the finishing touch, drizzle the sauce generously over everything. Enjoy!
