     Title: St. Vitus Parish Tournedos Au Poivre Et Champignons
Categories: Beef, Mushrooms, Herbs, Booze, Dairy
     Yield: 6 servings

     6    (2" thick) filets
          - mignon (tournedos)
   1/4 c  Peppercorns
 1 1/2 tb Butter
     3 tb Cognac
          Salt
 1 1/2 tb Butter
     6 tb Whipping cream
     1 lb Mushrooms; sliced thin
   1/4 c  Fresh parsley; chopped

 Mash peppercorns with a mallet or the back of a heavy
 pan.

 Press each side of the fillets into the cracked
 peppercorns and let the beef stand about an hour to
 absorb the flavor.

 Heat the butter and add the beef and sear about 8
 minutes per side for rare, 10 for medium, 12 for well
 done.

 Remove the steaks to a platter and allow to rest.

 Add cognac to the pan and heat for just a few seconds
 and then set ablaze.

 Option 1: Boil the liquid about a minute then stir in
 additional butter, salt and cream.

 Bring to a boil, reduce heat, add mushrooms and saute
 till mushrooms are soft.

 Pour over fillets and sprinkle with parsley.

 Option 2: Skip the cream (but it's better with).
