Seared Foie gras is a simple recipe that delivers an unforgettable taste. The benefit of this is the ingredient list and instructions are short, meaning you can enjoy this effortless dish at home with ease.

Method

Firstly, take your foie gras of choice. You’ll need to slice into multiple evenly sliced pieces. You may prefer pre-sliced foie gras to make this easier. If not, ensure your knife is very sharp and heated up to ensure a clean cut.
Next, take the same knife and score gently across your slices following a criss cross pattern. Season your foie gras to taste with salt and pepper to prepare them for your pan.
Place your foie gras slices on your pan and sear them over a medium-high heat for around 15 seconds each side. They should look golden brown on each side when seared correctly.
Transfer your seared foie gras to a plate and prepare for serving. Gently sprinkle a pinch of salt across before delivering your dish to further complement the flavour. It really is that simple! Bon appetit!
