- Ingredients
- 1 ready-made Puff pastry
- 1 large, Granny Smith Apple
- 2 Tbsps butter
- ⅔ cup Foie gras cooked and cut into medallions (You can also use foie gras pate if you prefer)
- 3 slices Bayonne ham
- 3 sprigs Chervil
- freshly ground Black pepper
Preparation steps
1.
Preheat the oven to Gas Mark 7 (210°C). Roll out the pastry and cut out star shapes with a cutter or knife and place them onto a baking tray lined with greaseproof paper. Place another layer of greaseproof paper over them and weigh them down with baking beans.
2.
Place in the oven and cook for 10 minutes, withdraw and remove the top sheet and baking beans and cook for a further 5 minutes.
3.
Peel the apple and remove the core with an apple corer. Cut into 6 discs.
4.
Melt the butter in a frying pan then cook the apples for 30 seconds each side.
5.
Cut foie gras to the size of the apple discs. If using pate spread the pate over the apple slices.
6.
Cut the ham into halves and then crumple it and play it on top of the apple and foie gras.
7.
Place the bases onto a serving dish. Push a cocktail stick sideways through the stars and then stand them through the ham and onto the apple disc, the cocktail stick will hold the stars upright.
