Preparation:
Cook the vinegar and sugar over medium heat until sugar is dissolved and the mixture is reduced to a glaze. Add the wine, shallot and cinnamon stick and boil until the liquid is reduced to about 1/4 cup. Add the broth and cherries and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove the cinnamon stick and stir in the cornstarch, simmering for 2 minutes. Stir in the lime, salt and pepper to taste. Cover and keep warm.
Heat a non-stick pan over high flame and sear the foie gras medallions about 30 seconds per side. Place on the brioche toasts and top with cherry sauce.
