But the French have many ways of spelling steak. French menus will generally list the type of steak in the dish description. • Tournedo niçoise: cook in butter, niçoise garnish, serve with thickened tomato gravy. • Tournedo Saint-Gothard: grilled, dress on croûtons, set on half a grilled tomato filled with béarnaise sauce, surround with souffle potatoes. • Tournedo italienne: cooked in butter, garnish with quarters of artichoke bottoms cooked à l’italienne, served with italienne sauce.
