Recipe 58: Mushroom sauce

A basic sauce which goes well with chicken and steak. I use this mainly to jazz up a steak and mashed spuds dinner.

Mushroom Sauce

Serves 4

100g small button mushrooms, sliced
100ml beef stock
50g butter
50g flour
350-400ml milk

METHOD

1. Melt butter in pan, then fry mushrooms until well cooked.
2. Stir in flour and cook further for 2 minutes
3. Slowly pour in stock and milk whilst stirring constantly until all combined (which will take approximately 5 minutes). Add more milk (if needed) to desired consistency.
4. Use salt and pepper to taste.
