Pork & Mushrooms in a Cream & Tarragon Sauce – sliced pork tenderloin and mushrooms in creamy tarragon and white wine sauce. You’ll think you’re dining out it’s that good!
You may have noticed, especially if you follow me on Facebook, that I recently entered the world of ultra bargain shopping which happens late in the day.
With all this extra wonderful produce I have been busy putting all my food bargains to great use and have not wasted a thing!
So this recipe for Pork & Mushrooms in a Cream & Tarragon Sauce was put together a couple of Sunday’s ago with mushrooms and tarragon that only cost me a couple of pence.
I had a pork loin, cream, and some wine bagged up in the freezer so this recipe virtually wrote itself!
So what did my family think of it? Well, to say they loved it would be an understatement.
I think there was almost a riot as everyone wanted to check they’d had their fair share and in my rush to take photos the portion control went out of the window LOL! It was that good!!
The wine, cream, and tarragon were perfect bedfellows. If I were served this in a restaurant I’d be very happy!

This is SO GOOD. I found this looking for something to make with pork (we only had ground) and tarragon (a rare treat; we live in Mexico, but I’d had a quick trip over the border to the US and a well-stocked market and this was my score). Some mods needed based on what we can source locally… but making sliders from ground pork, using the oyster mushrooms I canned earlier in the year, and Mexican ‘media crema’ brought it together. YUM!
Camilla
Wonderful Behan, you still had all the flavours there, so glad you enjoyed it with your mods:-)
Dana
I loved this so much I just went through my pork and mushroom recipe bookmarks and deleted them. This every time.
Camilla
Aaw, that’s so wonderful to hear Dana. We had it last night:-)
Sarah
Love this recipe! Only comment is that 1 pork loin is not enough for four people – it needs to be 4 – one sliced pork loin EACH. Other than that, the cream, white wine and tarragon make this really delicious and I cook it often. Thanks!
Camilla
Hi Sarah, so glad you like the recipe. Sorry I left out some words in the description of the pork as my mum always called it a pork loin, it’s a pork tenderloin fillet which weighs about 460 grams, I imagine you used loin chops?
She Marie
Thanks Camilla. This was a fab recipe. My guests thoroughly enjoyed it. Will def be making it again.. I had to use rosè wine as I didn’t have any white. I also used creme fraiche as I’m in france and that’s what we use in cooking.
Camilla
Excellent She, so pleased you and your guests liked it, must make it again myself:-)
Margaret Gallagher

Lesley
I’m going to make this at the weekend,do you think it will work ok cooking it in a slow cooker?
Camilla
Well not having made it like that I can’t really say. Come to think of it I’ve never cooked a cream sauce in the slow cooker! I would google another similar creamy sauce made in a slow cooker to see when would be best to add the cream, might be best towards the end? Let me know how you get on!

TOTALLY my kind of dish Camilla and as I have acres of tarragon in the garden, I may try this when I have some nice pork fillet! Karen

Choclette
One of the meals I still remember from my youth was my first French one and that was chicken cooked in a tarragon cream sauce. It was wonderful, so I’m very sure this was too. I might just have to try a mushroom tarragon sauce with something or other now.
Camilla
Yes chicken is perfect with tarragon sauce too, glad it brought back some lovely food memories for you Choclette:-)
