Tips:

To ensure the beef medallions are cooked to your desired doneness, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the medallion. For medium-rare, aim for an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). For medium, aim for 160°F (71°C). And for well-done, aim for 170°F (77°C).
If you don't have dried morel mushrooms, you can substitute another type of dried mushroom, such as porcini or shiitake. Just be sure to rehydrate them according to the package instructions before using.
To easily remove the skin from the shallots, simply blanch them in boiling water for a few seconds, then transfer them to an ice bath. The skin should then slip off easily.
If you don't have a meat mallet, you can use a rolling pin or the bottom of a heavy saucepan to pound the beef medallions thin.
To make sure the potatoes are crispy, be sure to toss them in olive oil and salt before roasting. You can also sprinkle them with herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, for extra flavor.
To make the warm salad greens, simply toss your favorite greens with a vinaigrette dressing. You can also add other vegetables, such as cherry tomatoes, cucumber, or red onion, to the salad.

Conclusion:

This beef medallion recipe is a delicious and impressive dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The medallions are cooked to perfection and the herb-roasted potatoes, warm salad greens, and dried morel brandy sauce complement them perfectly. With a little planning and effort, you can easily make this dish at home. So next time you're looking for a special meal to impress your friends and family, give this beef medallion recipe a try.
