50 g. butter

Turn on the oven to 200 C. Clean the goose breast and score the skin. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper.

Melt butter in a frying pan. Fry the goose breast for 2 minutes. on each side. Put them in a baking dish and place in the oven for 15-18 minutes. followed by 10 mins resting under a light sheet of tin foil - so don't wrap the meat, just gently fold and shape it around the meat.

Mix the salad in a bowl, kale, toasted and coarsely chopped hazelnuts and pomegranate seeds. Mix a dressing of olive oil, dijon mustard, white wine vinegar, honey, salt and freshly ground pepper. Mix it together, preferably with your hands so the cabbage is massaged.
