Filet mignon, as indicated by its french name, is a tender cut of beef that is famous for its wonderful texture. It's expensive and delicate, so knowing how to cook it to perfection will give you an incredible meal, so satisfying that there is no need for big serving sizes. This part of the animal doesn't bear any weight so it's not toughened by activity you probably can slice it with a fork once it's cooked. For our recipe, we prepare a tantalizing garlic-mustard pan sauce enriched with shallots, wine, and cream. Delicious and simple to prepare, this dish suits a dinner party. Wow your guests serving it with potatoes au gratin and an asparagus-pistachio salad.
