Recipe's Ingredients

  Quantities for people → Recalculate
  • pinch cayenne pepper
  • fine salt
  • 2 thick (about 4 cm) steaks (filets mignons)
  • 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
  • ¼ teaspoons juniper berries
  • ¼ teaspoons ground coriander
  • ¼ teaspoons ground cloves
  • ¼ teaspoons ground dried ginger
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons cognac
  • 180 ml heavy cream

  • Recipe preparation steps

  • 1
    Coarsely grind the peppercorns and juniper berries. Combine with the coriander, cayenne, cloves, ginger, and salt in a small bowl.
  • 2
    Generously and evenly sprinkle the steaks with the mixed spices. Gently pat the spices to cause them to adhere to the meat. Cook the steaks by pan-frying in butter.
  • 3
    Drain the fat from the frying pan and place the hot pan over high heat. Deglaze the pan with the cognac. Ignite the cognac and reduce almost totally. Add the cream, bring to a boil, reduce heat, and reduce the cream until sauce-like. Season the mixture with salt.

    Place the steaks on individual heated serving dishes and spoon the sauce over the tops.
