    Press peppercorns on the tenderloins, both sides. Save some of them for later.

    Melt butter on a frying pan and cook tenderloins as you like it. I like them medium, 4 minutes each side

  5. 5

    Keep the tenderloins warm (on a hot plate or under an aluminum foil)

  6. 6

    Pour brandy and mustard in the same frying pan you used before

  7. 7

    Stir and cook on low heat for 1 minute

  8. 8

    Add double cream and the green peppercorns you saved before

  9. 9

    Cook on low heat until thicken

  10. 10

    Put the tenderloins in the frying pan with the sauce you just made, few seconds are enough
