Steak Fillet on Portobello mushrooms with Goats Cheese
This is a lovely recipe, but it won’t be for everybody the sauce is quite beefy with a bit of a tang my husband loves this, but feel free to pair it with your favourite sauce or just serve it plain, there are loads of flavour just with meat mushrooms and spinach.
