Gently whisk the eggs. Season the flour with salt and white pepper. Thinly slice the onions. Put a large frying pan on medium-high heat. When it's nice and hot, add a splash of oil and a nice blob of butter. Dip the liver in the egg, then roll it in the flour and put in straight into the pan. Repeat with 1-2 liver slices (as many as your pan nicely fits at once), turn when they've taken on a nice golden brown color and then set aside on a plate. Rinse the pan with a little water and start over with the next slices. After you've got a beautiful, brown color on all the liver, rinse the pan and caramelize the onions in oil-and-butter mixture. As the onions start to get golden and translucent all over, return the liver to the pan. Place the liver slices evenly over the onions, pour over the cream and lower the heat to medium low. Let the gorgeous, thick sauce simmer for a few minutes (3-4 mins of light steaming and slight bubbling), then take straight to the table and serve with potato mash.
