Pumpkin Squash with Foie Gras

Hello my foodie friends,

Let’s stick to the Christmas celebrations theme today. Here is a super simple starter, easy to cook but with a little wow effect: my pumpkin squash with foie gras.

You will just have to make a pumpkin squash as you can do it anytime during fall or winter.

Of course you can prepare it the day before which is super convenient when you’re having many guests for Christmas or New Year’s Eve!!

A few minutes before eating, you will stir fry your slices of duck fois gras and that’s it!!

To make even more yummy, you can add a slice of grilled toast or brioche bread! It is not always necessary to make complicated thinkgs to have scrumptious food!

Shall we now?

The recipe, Chef!
