Bordelaise Sauce with Mushrooms image

I used to visit the restaurant of a friend who was a chef. He made the best mushroom sauce for beef, but would not share his recipe. After trial and error, I think mine comes very close to his. This haute cuisine sauce makes everyday steaks or roasts into something a little more elegant. Serve atop grilled steaks, hamburger steaks, roasted beef or venison. Bon Appetite!

Time 1h10m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoons shallot, minced
1 teaspoon minced garlic
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups sliced fresh mushrooms
1 cup beef broth
⅓ cup red wine
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
¼ teaspoon chopped fresh thyme, or to taste
salt and pepper to taste
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons cold water

Steps:

  • Melt 1 tablespoon of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in the garlic and shallot, and cook until the shallot has softened and turned translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons of butter, then stir in the mushrooms once the butter has melted. Cook and stir the mushrooms until they begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the beef broth, wine, and Worcestershire sauce; season with the bay leaf and thyme, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Once simmering, season to taste with salt and pepper, reduce the heat to medium-low, and continue to cook, uncovered until the sauce reduces slightly, about 30 minutes. Dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water, and stir into the simmering sauce until thickened. Remove the bay leaf before serving.

I love this recipe! The sauce is so rich and flavorful. I've made it several times and it's always a hit. I usually serve it with steak, but it would also be great with chicken or fish.

I had some trouble finding bone marrow, but I eventually found it at a specialty butcher shop. The sauce was worth the effort, though! It was absolutely delicious.

This sauce was a bit too rich for my taste, but my husband loved it. I think it would be great on a special occasion, but not for everyday meals.

This Bordelaise sauce was a delightful success! The combination of red wine, shallots, mushrooms, and bone marrow created a rich and flavorful sauce that perfectly complemented the steak. I highly recommend this recipe for a special occasion meal.
