Steaks Balmoral - cooking recipe

Ingredients

4 aberdeen angus rib eye steaks
1 ounce butter
1 shallot, chopped
4 tablespoons Scotch whisky
1 teaspoon coarse grain mustard (I use 1 tablespoon)
1/2 cup beef stock
4 ounces sliced mushrooms
1 cup double cream
1/4 - 1/2 cup fresh parsley, chopped
salt, to taste
fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Preparation

Pan fry the steaks to desired 'doneness' and keep warm.
In a separate pan, melt the butter. Saute the chopped shallot until soft.
Add the whisky to the pan and carefully set it alight.
When the flame goes out add the grain mustard, stock and mushrooms.
Add the cream and bring to the boil. Simmer gently until the sauce has reduced by half, stirring from time to time.
Add the chopped parsley just before serving.
Season well. Pour over steaks to serve.
