Absolutely gorgeous, I have made steak before with several sauces and this was close to one of mine, without being exact. What a lovely flavour works really well. Have ignited sauce before, but it is such a novelty and guests really enjoy it. Hubby thought it was delicious, and I have to say Yum, Yum. Made it with fillets, so more expensive cut, but the sauce was outstanding. I did add 1 clove of garlic to mushrooms and cooked seperately as janroundoz said prefer my mushrooms browned (well done.) also. But final result outstanding, thanks for sharing. YUM, SCRUMMY. YUM

    If you want to splurge on the cals and treat your steak to a wonderful sauce, then this is the recipe for you. I could go on all night, but 'nuff said! I must tell you though, that I cooked the mushrooms in a big pan alongside the steak, because I like my mushrooms well done, and I used light cream which worked just fine.

    HOLY COW. This was wonderful stuff. Hubby and I both loved it - and a guest who came over before we were quite done eating it sniffed and asked "What is that wonderful smell?" (Plus, I made hubby light it, and he stood there entranced by the beautiful flames flickering over the surface of the pan...) Two thumbs (and one nose) up.
