Ingredients
Ingredients for 4 servings
- 1 duck Foie gras or goose liver, about 600 g (1 lb. 5 oz.)
- 400 g (14 oz.) white Grapes
- 100 ml (6 tbsp.) white wine
- 4 tbsp. Port
- 2 carrots
- 1 onion
- 10 g (2 tsp.) goose fat
- 200 ml (3/4 cup) veal stock
- Salt and pepper
Method
Preparation - the day before
- Wash the grapes and remove them from the stems. Peel them and carefully remove the seeds from each grape.
- Place the grapes in a bowl with the white wine and Port. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate.
The day of serving
- Preheat the oven to 180° C (350° F). Carefully clean the foie gras, removing any small veins, green bits, blood and fat. Wipe quickly and pat dry with a towel.
- Peel and wash the carrots and slice into thin rounds. Peel and cut the onion into strips. Place the vegetables and goose fat into a heavy cocotte (Dutch oven). Lay the foie gras on top.
- Cover everything with a sheet of parchment paper. Put the lid on the cocotte and place in the oven for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Gently drain the grapes, reserving the marinade.
- Once the cocotte comes out of the oven, remove the foie gras and degrease the pan. Keep the foie gras warm.
- Place the cocotte over medium heat and add the veal stock and the marinating liquid from the grapes. Reduce by half and strain.
- Pour the sauce into a small saucepan and heat gently for 3 or 4 minutes. When very hot, add the grapes to heat them through.
Presentation
- Cut the foie gras into nice thin even slices and place onto warmed plates.
- Spoon the sauce and grapes over top. Serve immediately.
