Foie gras pasta is the French-Italian fusion that takes the richness of foie gras and pairs it with brown butter and tagliatelle. Fifteen minutes from cold pan to plate.
Key Takeaways
- Cube foie gras into 1cm pieces
- Brown butter sage sauce
- Fresh egg tagliatelle
- 60g foie per portion
- Cool slightly before adding foie

The Ingredients
Serves 2
- 200g fresh egg tagliatelle
- 120g Rougié foie gras bloc, cubed
- 60g unsalted butter
- 8 small sage leaves
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 30g Parmigiano Reggiano, grated
- A few flakes of Maldon sea salt
The Method
1. Boil tagliatelle in salted water 2 min.
2. Brown butter with sage in wide pan over medium heat 3-4 min until nutty and golden.
3. Off heat, add lemon juice.
4. Drain pasta and tip into the brown butter pan with 4 tbsp pasta water.
5. Plate. Quickly add foie gras cubes (heat melts them slightly into the dish).

Tips
Brown butter quickly, don't burn.
Foie gras off the heat. Heat melts it.
