Instructions
Put the pancetta in a large frying pan and cook until crisp, then lift out with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
Heat the oil in the pan. Sear the liver steaks for 1-2 mins each side so theyre just still pink in the middle using half the butter towards the end to baste the meat.
Remove the liver to a plate using the slotted spoon and leave to rest, covered with foil, for 10-15 mins.
Add the chopped sage, thyme leaves, shallots, mushrooms and lemon zest to the pan. Fry on the highest heat for a few mins, then add the lemon juice and some seasoning. Cook for 3-5 mins until slightly saucy and the mushrooms are soft.
Heat the remaining butter in your smallest saucepan until just foaming.
Add the remaining whole sage leaves and fry for a few mins until crisp.
Drain on kitchen paper with the pancetta. Sit the liver on toast, spoon over the mushroom mixture and scatter over the pancetta and crisp sage.
