Steps:
- Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the shallots. Cook gently over low heat for about 2 minutes, until the shallots are soft but not brown.
- Add the Madeira, bring the mixture to a boil and reduce it by half to concentrate the flavor. Mix in the demiglace, return the mixture to a boil and add the dissolved potato starch and salt and pepper to taste.
- Just before serving, add the chopped truffles and Cognac. Bring the mixture to a boil, cover tightly to prevent the aroma from evaporating and serve as soon as possible with the truffled potatoes Sarladaise (see recipe) or with meat.

- To prepare the beef heat olive oil in a fry pan when the pan is hot add the beef and sear all sides until browned. Remove from heat put on a plate and set aside to cool.
- While the beef is cooling lightly flour a surface and roll out the puff pastry big enough to envelope the beef. Take two pancakes and lay them on top of the pastry, next spread the fois gras onto the centre of the pancakes enough that it will cover the top and sides of the fillet. (allow fois gras to come to room temperature as this will make it soft and easy to spread) Then spread the mushroom mixture on, the same as the fois gras take the beef and place on top of the mushroom mix press down gently. Take remaining two pancakes place on top of fillet.Wrap the pastry around the fillet and fold in sides to envelope beef,and seal with beaten egg.
- Turn over and place seam side down on buttered baking tray. You can decorate the top with cut out pastry leaves if you want. The wellington has to be refrigerated now for one hour before baking.
- To cook preheat oven to 190°C and bake beef until pastry is golden brown approx 35-45 mins, a little longer if you prefer your beef more well done. Remove from oven and stand for 10mins before serving.

- Bring broth and madeira to boil then turn down heat and simmer until reduced by half. Mix cornflour with water to form a paste and add just to thicken slightly, add truffles allow to simmer a few minutes more then add butter and serve immediately.
