Fois Gras with honey braised figs? How about filet minon with red wine sauce. Seared tuna with sesame greens and parsnip puree?
cool thread bro.
well i never created anything with figs..but for the filet
for like 4 portionns...i'd get about a 8 oz filet per portion. cut it inhalf so you have two midalions.season with only salt and pepper..its filet, u dont need anything else..put in fridge
put like 5 oz of weed butter, get it warm, and add equal part flour and that is what ruex is....google it for specific directions its super easy..it thickens sauce..
take roux off heat, put in a seperate container. clean your pan u used for roux.
Now for the red wine part of the sauce...sautee about 1/2 cup minced onions...shallots even better if you have them, cook them in a about 2 tbsp of butter untill their translucent...add minced garlic and cook for another 15 seconds...don't turn it too dark...
now put 3-4x more redwine than what the roux made... cook this for about 30 minutes on low heat to simmer down and reduce
this burns alchohal and concentrate flavor....
add your roux and turn the heat up...the flour thickens when it gets hot enough so dont crank the heat but get it hot and stir frequently...it will thicken
if it is too runny...you can add more roux...its easy..dont be lazy this will be awsome. taste it...if it doesnt have enough flavor..add whatever spices you think will make it better to your taste
cook the filet how you want it...i would pan sear it in a couple tablespoons of weed butter to your desired doneness...or you can grill it...but yeah...
cook filet...add sauce...eat...
