Recipe Ingredients

3/4 lb	340g / 11oz	Firm - fresh mushrooms
3 tablespoons	45ml	Butter
2 teaspoons	10ml	Flour
		Salt and pepper
1 cup	237ml	Heavy cream - heated

6		French bread
6 tablespoons	90ml	Butter
1/2 cup	118ml	Scotch

Recipe Instructions

Slice mushrooms and saute in 3 Tbsp butter. Add flour and salt and pepper to taste. Blend well. Stir in warm cream. Keep well-heated, in a separate skillet, while you saute the filets in hot butter for 2 1/2 minutes* per side (for rare) Saute bread slices in 6 Tbs butter, turning often to prevent butter from being absorbed. Arrange bread slices in a ring on well-heated platter.

Top with the filets and arrange the mushroom sauce in the center. Stir the Scotch into pan juices, boil up for a minute or two and spoon sauce over the meat. Additional sauce can be passed separately.

*This will be extremely rare. For medium-rare interior, saute for 3 minutes per side.
