Foie Gras with Red Velvet Sauce

Foie Gras with Red Velvet Sauce

By Sandra Djohan | March 29, 2017

Foie gras combines perfectly with sweets and fruits. This is one of my recipes from my old restaurant, which I’ve perfected and now serve in my new restaurant as well. I get a lot of inquiries about it so I thought I’d share the goodness.
