Ingredients
  • ½ pound liver
  • 4 strips bacon
  • 2 tablespoons flour
Utensils
  • Knife
  • Bowl
  • Frying-pan

Directions
  1. Cut the liver into small cutlets one-half inch thick, place the cutlets in a bowl, cover them with boiling water, and let them stand five minutes.
  2. Drain off the water, and remove the skin and veins from the liver.
  3. Put the strips of bacon in a hot frying-pan, and after cooking a few minutes place the liver in the pan with the bacon.
  4. Turn both liver and bacon often, and broil about five minutes or until well browned.
