Serving Size: 4
Ingredients:
- 600 g beef tenderloin - 200 g chopped mushrooms
- 100 g bacon

- 100 ml cream
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 onion, chopped
- 2 garlic cloves, minced

Instructions:
1. Cook the bacon in a pan until crispy. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft. 2. Add the chopped mushrooms to the pan and cook until the moisture has evaporated. Pour in the cream and let it simmer for a moment. Season with salt and pepper. Allow to cool.
