Foie Gras Escalopes

An unforgettable taste of French cuisine. Wow the people you love! For our wedding anniversary, my husband and I decided to have a romantic dinner. I wanted to make something unforgettable and special, ideally from French cuisine. Silky-tender liver woven through with salty, sweet, and sour flavors... The dinner was a hit, and my husband was delighted. On top of that, foie gras is said to be a powerful aphrodisiac :)

    1. Rinse the liver and pat it dry. 2. Pour the orange juice and wine into a saucepan, and add the sugar, a little salt, and the ginger. Reduce the liquid over low heat until the sauce has cooked down by half. 3. Peel and dice the apples, then fry them in butter until soft. 4. Lay the escalopes in a well-heated skillet with the peanut oil. Foie gras cooks very fast — just 1 minute per side. 5. Transfer the cooked escalopes to a paper towel to blot off the excess fat. Season lightly with salt. 6. Serve the escalopes on a bed of apples, spoon the sauce over the finished dish, and garnish however you like. Enjoy!
