Season foie gras and dover sole with salt and white pepper. Layer foie gras and sole onto the middle of the red cabbage leaf. Fold the sides so the cabbage leaf becomes a bundle. Place in steamer for 4 minutes and check the fish and foie gras is warm in the middle.
To serve
Remove from steamer and allow the bundle to drain on a clean cloth. Serve and garnish with sliced or shaved white truffles.
