1 lb. mushrooms
2 oz. flour
2 oz. butter
2 T. cream
Croutons
Salt and pepper
Thoroughly clean and dry the mushrooms but don't peel. Slice them into a pan and simmer in butter for 5 minutes. Sprinkle with flour, stir gently and cook for a further 2 minutes or so. Season, add heated (but not boiled) milk and simmer for a further 3 minutes. Now stir in the cream, immediately reheat well, and serve scattered with croutons of fried bread.
