Lactose free Mushroom Sauce

Lactose free Mushroom Sauce

Unfortunately Lactose intolerance has become an issue for Sue. She’s OK with harder Cheeses, but we’re trying to avoid Cream in sauces as it causes her discomfort for a couple of days afterwards. So this is her alternative Mushroom Sauce for steaks etc. which was really good. We actually use Margarine instead of Butter here anyway.

Ingredients:-

2 Shallots, finely sliced
4 Chestnut Mushrooms, finely sliced
Home made Garlic Butter
1 Tbsp Flour (Gluten free here)
400ml Beef Stock
Salt & Pepper
Soy Sauce
Dijon Mustard
Oil 

Method:-

(1) Sauté the Shallots in Garlic Butter and a little Oil until softened.
(2) Add the Mushrooms and season with Salt & Pepper.
(3) Stir in the Flour and then add the Beef Stock.
(4) Allow to simmer for 5 minutes.
(5) Add a dash of Soy Sauce and a teaspoon of Dijon Mustard and stir while simmering for a further 5 minutes.
(6) Just before serving add a knob of Butter and stir in to add a glaze to the sauce.

DIY Brown Sauce - Gluten Free

There is logic in this madness. Almost all Brown Sauces have Wheat Gluten in them. That’s a serious no-no for Sue. There is actually no need and as far as we can tell so far this version tastes much better anyway. We’re supposed to give it 10 days to mature. Well, we’ll see how that goes!!!!

Ingredients:-

4 Apples, cores and chopped
300g of Prunes, chopped
1 Large Onion, diced
375g of Brown Sugar
72G of Salt
900ml of Malt Vinegar
1 Tsp of dried Ginger
½ Tsp of Allspice
½ Tsp Cayenne Pepper
¼ Tsp Grated Nutmeg

Method:-

(1) Open all the windows!
(2) Bung it all in a really big pan and bring to the boil.
(3) Stand outside as the Vinegar fumes will be making you gasp by now!
(4) Reduce the heat and simmer until everything has reduced by 1/3, stirring regularly.
(5) Remove from the heat.
(6) Use a hand blender (Food processor will be fine) and wuzz everything up.
(7) Once cool pour into a clip top jar.
(8) Set aside for 10 days!!!!!

We recycled an existing plastic squeezey which we’ll top up as required.
