Männerwirtschaft: Das Kochbuch für hungrige Männer
By Michaela Langer, Kristin Labuch
Hoelker Verlag - 2000
The sauce was delicious, and the rest was, well, a steak. Nothing wrong with that, it's just not something you would need a recipe for. Flambéeing was cool, but had no effect whatsoever on the meat, though it made for a good basis for the sauce. However, don't add the pepper before flambéeing, as instructed, as it will burn.
This recipe is from a cookbook directed at men - you know, one of those that implies that a man would only cook if there's not a woman around who would do it for him. It appears in the chapter 'Romantic Tête à tête', though it seems to be the perfect date-dish from a very male point of view - at least I would prefer to eat something else on a date. Flambéeing was impressive, though.
We served this with Baked Tomatoes, a good combination in general (see that review for caveats).
