I see mushrooms in the dish but I don’t see it in the recipe.
Ooops apologies, adding it now. Thanks for letting us know
Looks great but I would not bother trying to cook that here. No fresh beef and the imported frozen Australian and New Zealand beef is as tough as leather.
This is the second cream and mushroom recipe I see this week, now with steak…I am so hungry!
