Steak with Red Wine Sauce

OK this is certainly not within budget. But we’d been here for 2 years on Friday and that certainly deserved a little celebration.

Red Wine Sauce.

Ingredients:-

1 Small bottle (240ml) of Red Wine
2 Cloves of Garlic, minced
2 Shallots, finely chopped
1 Tbsp Balsamic Vinegar
1 Sprig of fresh Rosemary
2 Sprigs of fresh Thyme
240ml Beef Stock
Parsley to garnish
A knob of Butter
Salt & Pepper
Oil

Method:-

(1) Gently fry the Shallots.
(2) Add the Garlic.
(3) Add the Wine, Balsamic Vinegar, Rosemary and Thyme and simmer to reduce for about 20 minutes.
(4) Add the Beef Stock allow to simmer for a further 10 to 15 minutes.
(5) Turn off the heat and whisk in the Butter.
(6) Season with Salt & Pepper to taste.

We had a rare Steak each, hand cut Chips, Peas and DIY Onion Rings. The sauce was really good and next time we’re treating ourselves we’ll be revisiting this.

Chick in the Hole – Version #2

Our original “Chick in the Hole” experiment for Yorkshire Pudding Day was pretty good. The recipe is here But clearly a Chicken dinner needs stuffing even if it’s been shoehorned into a giant Yorkshire Pudding! So….

There are a Sage bush and a Rosemary bush just down the road. Armed with fresh herbs and a bit of time we cobbled this new version together.

Gluten free Yorkshire Pudding with finely chopped Rosemary added. Half a roasted Chicken in the middle. Surrounded by home made Gluten free Sage & Onion Stuffing balls. Oh and lashing of gravy after I'd taken the picture!

Unfortunately typing is difficult this morning, I may have inavertently bitten a few fingers off scrabbling for the left overs this morning!
