Method

  • step 1

    Soak the dried mushrooms in 100ml hot water for 10 mins until soft, then drain, reserving the liquid, roughly chop and set aside. Season the steaks with lots of pepper and a little salt. Heat the butter and oil in a frying pan until foaming, then cook the steaks for 2 mins on each side for medium rare or longer to your liking. Remove from the pan and keep warm.

  • step 2

    In the same pan, fry the shallot, then add the drained mushrooms and cook until lightly browned. Splash in the Sherry, then add the porcini liquid, balsamic vinegar and the cream, and simmer down to make a thick, creamy sauce. Put the steaks and their juices back in the pan, spoon over the sauce and serve with mash.

Delicious. Followed tip of separately frying mushrooms with garlic & adding fresh chestnut mushrooms, thyme and a splash of Sherry vinegar. Used venison leg steaks, 4 mins each side but still very rare so keep basting & checking. Served with mash & green veg.

We thought this was excellent. I did enhance the sauce by slicing in a few chestnut mushrooms as well as the wild porcini and served it on a bed of steamed spinach. The sauce was rich and flavoursome. Quick and delicious.

To be honest I was a little disappointed with the sauce. I'm a fan of sauces with big flavours and I'm afraid this one was a little too subtle for my taste, that's not to say others won't enjoy it, as they clearly have done. I found that the sauce needed a lot of seasoning to bring out the flavours,…

Use port wine instead. Fry the mushrooms first to dry them. After fried again with garlic, bit olive oil, salt and fresh time, drop port wine and after mix the cream and nutmeg. Test the flavour and serve
