Beefsteak With Mushrooms

Take four pounds of the best sirloin steak, cut thin. Season with black pepper, and a very little salt. Put four tablespoonfuls of butter into a frying pan, and put it over the fire. When it is quite hot, lay in the steaks and let them brown.

Have ready a quart of mushrooms, stemmed and skinned, and moisten with a pint of water, seasoned with a little pepper and salt, and thickened slightly with a good dredging of flour. Pour it over the steaks in the frying pan, and then let them cook till thoroughly done. Venison steaks will be found excellent dressed in this manner, but the venison must be fresh.
