Prime Sirloin with Parsnip Puree and Foie Gras Bordelaise
Prep Time: one and a half hours
Serves: 3
Directions:
For the Bordelaise:
In a large heavy bottom rondeaux, bring the olive oil to high heat. Add the beef scrap. Cook until well browned on all sides. Add all vegetables. Continue to cook until garlic is brown and all vegatables are translucent . Add wine and bring wine down to 1/4 original volume. Add veal in intervals. Constantly skim all fat off top of stock. One sauce is a desired consistancy, remove from heat and strain. Slowly blend in the foie gras in small intervals until totally incorporated, taking care not to allow the fat to separate from the sauce.
