Slightly coat these garnishes, which should be arranged in heaps, with sauce; finish the dish with four oval quenelles decked with tongue and truffle, and place one of these at either end and side of the dish. _Sauce to be sent separately._—A Godard sauce combined with the cooking-liquor of the fillet, cleared of all grease and reduced. 1055—FILET DE BŒUF HONGROISE Lard the fillet and roast it.
