FILLET OF BEEF IN PUFF PASTRY WITH SAUCE MADEIRA
Steps:
- In a large skillet, over high heat, saute tournedos in 3 tablespoons butter for 30 seconds on each side. Set aside to cool completely.

- Glaze the tops of the pastry with egg wash.
- Bake the tournedos 15 to 20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown.
- Arrange each tournedo on a heated plate and garnish with watercress. Nap the sauce Madeira around the tournedos.
