  1. Good recipe. The 1/4 c flour in the mushroom sauce is not sufficient to thicken it. I let it boil down 20 min., then bit the bullet and added another 1/4 c flour in water to the boiling sauce. That did the trick. Try cubed portobello mushrooms for a more tasty sauce.

  4. My husband and I really enjoyed this recipe. I followed the recipe except for the lemon, then I sliced it into strips and served it over wild rice with the gravy on top. Yum! Thanks for the recipe!

  1. This is exactly what I was looking for I wanted to make a german dinnner for my friend, and this worked just great, I used pork tenderloin instead of venison, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly, it was excellent and very easy to prepare. Thanks for a great recipe, I will be making this again
