Preparation time: 20 minutes

Serves 6

 

Method

  1. Cut the foie gras, pears and quince paste into slices of roughly the same size.
  2. Sprinkle the lemon juice over the pear slices to keep them from going brown.
  3. Using a small pastry cutter (about 1 inch in diameter), cut out circles from the slices.
  4. Take a circle of quince paste as your base, layer a circle of foie gras on top, then a layer of quince paste, and top with a layer of pear.
  5. Stick a skewer through the middle to hold the slices together.
  6. Season with black pepper.
  7. Keep well covered and refrigerated until you want to serve.
