METHOD
1 Slice the baguette into very thin pieces and toast in the oven at 180°C for around 8 minutes, or until golden.
2 Slice the tuna loin as thinly as you can (capaccio style)
3 Using a knife warmed in hot water, slice the foie gras into 3mm slices and store in a cool place.
4 Combine your lime juice and olive oil.
5 To serve, assemble by layering the toasts with a slice of the foie gras, then cover the foie gras with a tuna slice. Use a brush to baste the top with the lime juice and olive oil and season to taste. Top with micro herbs.

Wine pairing
Arrogant Frog Lily Pad White Viognier $9.99. The texture and the complexity of the tastes created are perfectly matched by the round and rich texture of the viognier, through its dry apricot, peach and slightly spicy aromatics.
