🍷🥩 French Tournedos Rossini – A Luxurious Steak Dish 🇫🇷✨
A decadent and elegant dish, Tournedos Rossini features tender filet mignon, rich foie gras, and a Madeira wine reduction, all served atop buttery toasted brioche. A true French classic for special occasions! 🍽️💛
Ingredients
• 2 beef filet mignons (6 oz / 170g each)
• 2 slices of foie gras
• 2 slices of brioche, toasted
• 2 tbsp (30ml) Madeira wine
• 1 tbsp (15ml) beef stock
• 1 tbsp (15g) butter
• Salt & pepper, to taste
• Black truffle slices, for garnish (optional but recommended)
Instructions
1️⃣ Sear the filet mignon – Season with salt and pepper. Heat butter in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the filets for 3–4 minutes per side for medium-rare (adjust for desired doneness). Remove and keep warm.
2️⃣ Make the Madeira glaze – In the same skillet, pour Madeira wine and beef stock, scraping up any browned bits. Simmer until the sauce reduces and thickens into a glaze.
3️⃣ Sear the foie gras – In a separate pan, sear the foie gras slices over high heat for 30 seconds per side until golden brown.
4️⃣ Assemble the dish – Place each filet mignon on a toasted brioche slice. Top with seared foie gras, drizzle with the Madeira glaze, and finish with black truffle slices.
5️⃣ Serve immediately – Enjoy this luxurious, restaurant-worthy dish with a glass of Bordeaux wine and silky mashed potatoes or asparagus.
💡 Tip: If foie gras isn’t available, substitute with seared duck liver or a rich mushroom pâté for a similar indulgence!
🍽️ Bon appétit! 🇫🇷✨
