The steak fillets are usually cut from the tenderloin, making them one of the most expensive cuts of beef. The Diane sauce is a creamy and decadent sauce made with cream, mushrooms, onions, Worcestershire sauce, and brandy. It is believed that the sauce was named after the Roman goddess Diana because it is rich, luxurious, and fit for royalty. This dish is often served with sides like roasted potatoes or vegetables to make a complete meal, but it can also be enjoyed on its own.
