Beef, Lumber, in Madeira Sauce

Roast three pounds of beef, for half an hour only. Prepare a sauce with brown stock or broth, some butter, flour, cayenne, salt, pepper, and a glass of Madeira. Put the half-cooked beef into a stewpan with the sauce, and simmer, but do not boil, for the same time. Mushrooms or truffles add to the delicacy. Time, half an hour to roast, same to simmer. Probable cost of lumber, 1s. 4d. per pound.
