Remarks
If you don't have a tart ring for step 3, use a conventional mold, and place in the oven without a baking sheet.

You can mix the fruits together, with a tablespoon of sugar, and perhaps another of an alcohol of your choice (plum, brandy,...) as soon as they are cut, for a more pronounced taste after cooking.

The tart can of course be made with other summer fruits, peaches, pears, etc.
Keeping: 1 or 2 days in the fridge, covered or protected with cling film.

Preparing your own home-made foie gras from raw is immensively satisfying: good quality liver and a simply amazing flavour – much better than anything you can buy. This recipe is a bit tricky, but quite within everyone's grasp, as long as you follow the 3 most delicate stages carefully. These are, in order: de-veining the liver, seasoning and cooking.
