Notes
This recipe serves six to ten people depending on how you serve it. If you are simply spreading a thin layer on a plate like in our filet mignon recipe – it will serve upwards of ten people. If you are enjoying this as a side dish – similar to how you might eat mashed potatoes – then it will be closer to six portions.
