Method

Preparation of Beef

  1. 1

    Sear the Beef

    Season the filet of beef with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef for 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare. Remove from skillet and let it rest.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Foie Gras

    In the same skillet, add the foie gras slices and sear for about 1-2 minutes on each side until golden. Season with salt and pepper. Remove and set aside.

Truffle Mashed Potato

  1. 3

    Cook the Potatoes

    Peel and chop the potatoes. Boil them in salted water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot.

  2. 4

    Mash and Flavor

    Add butter, heavy cream, truffle oil, salt, and pepper to the potatoes. Mash until smooth and creamy. Keep warm.

Truffle Sauce

  1. 5

    Make the Sauce

    Melt butter in the skillet and add finely chopped shallots. Sauté until translucent. Pour in red wine and reduce by half. Add beef stock and reduce again until thickened. Stir in truffle oil, salt, and pepper.

Plating

  1. 6

    Serve the Dish

    On a plate, place a scoop of truffle mashed potatoes, top with the filet of beef, and add the seared foie gras beside it. Drizzle with truffle sauce and serve immediately.
