Stem the mushrooms, wash them in water and lemon and chop them. Melt the butter in a thick based saucepan, gently soften the shallots in the butter, sprinkle with the curry powder, stir in 3 1/2 oz of cream, the chopped mushrooms, the chicken stock and season with pepper. Reduce the sauce, uncovered, for 15 minutes on a low heat. When about to serve, take off the stove and mix in the remaining cream, whipped, and the grated cheese. Serve immediately with pasta, Creole rice or poultry.

You might not need to season the sauce with salt, as the chicken stock and the cheese are usually salty enough.
