Recipe: Pan-seared Fattened Duck Hearts

1 Remove the small ring of fat above the hearts then open them in half until ¾ and place on a plate.

2 In a large pan heat your duck fat, when it is very hot, place your duck hearts, salt and pepper with the mill cook 2 minutes, then turn them salt and pepper, cook 2 additional minutes and remove the hearts onto a large platter.

3 Put the pan back on heat with the remaining fat, then pour in your apples and your mushrooms, salt then sauté without burning until your apples are cooked.

4 Then add your hearts and the juice released in the pan and sprinkle with the parsley garnish just one turn of the pan (30 seconds) to reheat the hearts.

5 Then arrange your hearts harmoniously around each hot plate and your pan-seared apples and mushrooms in the center and serve immediately.
