The chef prefers the use of fresh        truffles, but in this case they were not in season;        preserved jar truffles were substituted.                PREPARATION: In a large skillet, heat 3 tablespoons        butter. Add the spinach and the garlic; stir over medium        high heat. Season with salt and pepper, continuing to        cook until moisture rendered from the spinach has        evaporated. Drain well and keep warm. In a small        saucepan, melt 14 tablespoons butter; add the heavy        cream. Stir to blend, then pour over sliced truffles.                Season beef filets with salt and pepper. In a large        skillet over medium high heat, heat 4 tablespoons butter        to very hot; saute beef filets 3 minutes on each side.                Remove filets from the skillet; discard fat and deglaze        skillet with truffle juice. Cook until reduced by half,        then add veal stock and continue to cook for a few        minutes longer. Add 2 large spoonfuls of cream from the        sliced truffles to this mixture; stir to blend. Remove        from heat.                TO SERVE: Place a mound of spinach in the center of each        serving plate. Cut filets into thin medallions and        arrange on top of spinach. Layer truffle slices between        filet slices. Spoon sauce over all. Season to taste with        salt and pepper.                Serves 4                Chef Roger Verge: Moulin des Mougins; Mougins, France                From: http://www.recipelink.com                Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives               MMMMM              ...
