INSTRUCTIONS
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Season both sides of steak with salt. Brush
with Dijon mustard, reserving extra for sauce. In a pie tin place
peppercorns and press steaks in to coat each side with about a 1/4 cup; if
you have time, set aside. In a saute pan heat 1 tablespoon oil to smoking.
Cook steaks for 3 minutes on first side, turn and cook 3 more minutes.
Transfer steaks to pie tin and roast in oven 4 minutes for rare, 8 for
medium-rare, and so on. Meanwhile, wipe excess fat and loose pepper from
saute pan. Reheat pan with 1 teaspoon oil, add shallots, toss and cook for
1 minute. Carefully add brandy to pan. CAUTION: IT WILL IGNITE. Allow
brandy to burn off and add garlic, remaining mustard and veal stock. Bring
to a boil and simmer until reduced by half. Stir in heavy cream and
continue to reduce for 2 minutes. Stir in butter and adjust seasonings.
Remove steaks to serving plates, spoon sauce over and garnish with parsley.
We like to serve this with crispy-fried shoestring potatoes. This recipe
yields 2 servings.
