Calves’ Liver Venetian Style – Fegato alla Veneziana is such a lovely warming main dish on a cold evening. The aroma fills the house and invites everybody to eat. A meal for 4 people is ready within 30 minutes and that include 25 for the onions!! The recipe only has 3 ingredients, Calves Liver, Olive oil and Onions. However the result of combining them is amazing. I usually serve this dish with mashed potato. The mash may not be an Italian recipe but the work so well together. This dish goes so well together and makes a change from the normal Sausage and Onion Gravy.
