2. Combine the flour, paprika and spicy seasoning. Dust the liver in the seasoned flour and fry in the same pan used for the onions for 2 minutes on each side, then return the onions to the pan. Combine well.

3. Fry for another few minutes, then add the soya sauce. Stir one more time, then serve hot with a side of your choice.
