Grilled Beef Fillets with Mushrooms and Red Wine Sauce

Here, grilled beef fillets are accompanied by meaty mushrooms and a coriander-spiced wine sauce. For guests who do not eat meat, grill a tofu steak or serve two mushrooms with the sauce. Heads of Belgian endive and spears of asparagus, grilled alongside the mushrooms, make good accompaniments.
