Ciğer Tava (Edirne Style Liver) vs Berlin Style Calf's Liver

Both plates start from floured calf liver cooked very quickly, but they diverge sharply. The Edirne-style ciğer tava cuts the liver into thin bite-sized pieces and deep-fries them in hot oil for a crisp, golden bite, served with deep-fried potatoes, sharp raw red onion, a sprinkle of parsley and, optionally, quick-fried dried peppers for heat. The Berlin dish sears larger slices in hot butter, leaving them slightly pink inside, and pairs them with soft butter-sautéed onions and golden apple rings for a richer, sweeter plate finished with plenty of parsley.
