- Pour 750ml of red wine, the port and the meat stock into a saucepan and let it reduce until it has a syrup-like texture.
- Prepare the liver cream by sautéing the foie gras and chicken liver separately. Don't keep the fat. Season with salt and pepper and cut into cubes.
- Reduce the stock from 750ml to approximately 100ml and then add the diced liver. Puree the mixture and strain it through a fine sieve to make a fine, smooth cream.
- Prepare the pea puree by briefly blanching the fresh peas in boiling salted water; if you use frozen peas, let them thaw first. Puree the peas with the veal stock and season with salt and pepper.
- Cut the carrot into thin strips with a vegetable peeler. Blanch them briefly in boiling salt water and shock them in ice water. Make small rolls and place them on a plate. Place them in the oven at a low temperature to keep them warm.
- Cook the truffles for about an hour in a closed pan in 50ml champagne and 50ml port. Then remove them from the brew and cut them into small cubes.
- Peel the pearl onion and fry them in a pan with a little peanut oil. Deglaze with 500ml port, add three juniper berries, and let it cook for about 5 minutes. Let everything cook for another 20 minutes with the lid on the pan.
- Salt the tenderloin lightly and brush with the olive oil. Vacuum seal the meat together with two juniper berries in a vacuum bag. Place the meat in a sous vide water bath for 1 hour. The starting point for this is 54 °C for medium rare.

- Cut the tenderloin diagonally and divide it among four plates. Add a scoop of pea puree and liver cream. Arrange the carrot rolls and pearl onions on the plate as well. Pour the sauce around the entire dish and enjoy!
