How to Cook Fillet Steaks in Madeira Sauce (Simple Tournedos Rossini)
- Wash and finely chop the mushrooms. Melt half the butter in a pan, add the mushrooms and fry gently until golden. Transfer to a heatproof dish, slice the pate into 1" (2.5cm) rounds and add to the dish. Spoon over half the Madeira and season with salt and freshly-ground pepper to taste. Place over a pan of hot water to heat through gently.
- Season the steaks with salt and freshly-ground pepper to taste. Melt the remaining butter in a frying pan (skillet) add the steaks and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side.
- Place the tournedos on a serving plate, spoon chopped mushroom over each then top with a slice of pâté. Spoon some sauce over and serve immediately with Braised Leeks and Potato Gratin.
GRAHAM'S HOT TIP:
The classic Tournedos Rossini (Fillet Steaks in Madeira Sauce) requires the steak to be cooked rare (and I admit, this is the way I like it). If, however, you MUST cook your meat further, increase the cooking time to about 3-4 minutes on each side. Anything more than this and you'll be eating hard, chewy meat for the next week!!
Reviews of Fillet Steaks in Madeira Sauce (Simple Tournedos Rossini)
September 14 2014 I actually wanted to do a Tournedos Rossini (which you have a very good recipe for) but getting hold of raw foie gras was a problem, and price was also an issue. This recipe actually made a great alternative (particularly since I added a bit of port and brandy to the sauce to "tone it up" a bit!). Husband loved it (I was doing it for his birthday) and I confess, it wasn't half bad! I'll certainly do this again when the occasion arises. fiestysally (1 review) |

Marita's Beef Stew and Herb Dumplings is so called because my ex-wife, Marita, frequently used to make it for myself and the kids. Ah, fond memories!
Guinness Beef Stew is one of those strange culinary mixtures that works. The malty flavour of the Guinness adds depth to the meat.
