  • PAGAS can you share the recipe for filet with champagne cream sauce?

    Thanks! 

  • I am adapting the champagne sauce I used on salmon here.

    This is my plan, to use a roux to make it thicker and reducing the quantity.

    Champagne Cream Sauce

     

    1 tablespoon butter

    ? shallot, peeled and finely chopped

    1 tablespoon flour

    ? cup champagne

    ? cup cream

    salt and pepper

     

    Melt the butter in a small saucepan. Add the shallot and saut? over gentle heat for 5 minutes until it?s softened. Add flour, stir and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add the champagne to the pan. Blend in heavy cream, whisking until smooth. Bring all ingredients to a simmer for another 3 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste

    Ooh, I love your normal version of this sauce and have always wanted to make a thicker version but never want to risk ruining a good thing... let me know how it turns out.  I just made the Champagne Sauce last night for some fish.
