how do you make a good steak sauce?

Answer 1

Homemade Steak Sauce

INGREDIENTS:
1 cup catsup
1/2 cup onion, coarsely chopped
1 large clove garlic
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 tablespoons prepared mustard
PREPARATION:
Combine all ingredients in saucepan and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes or until it reaches a good consistency, stirring occasionally. Cool. Strain to remove onion and garlic. Store in refrigerator. When cooked, is brown and tastes almost like A-1 sauce.

Answer 2

Firstly, ensure the steaks are cooked in the frying pan with butter and a little olive oil together with some crushed garlic. When nearly done as you like them, remove and keep warm. Add to the pan some already sweated, finely diced onions and some thinly sliced mushrooms. Toss these in the meat juices and garlic. Turn up the heat on the pan and add a good dash of cognac or brandy. Flame the pan and replace the steaks into it. Add a good amount of double or heavy cream and cook rapidly until it thickens. Serve immediately. You can also add some fresh or dried herbs, crushed peppercorns, etc for a variation, but this makes a very good basic brandy and cream sauce. Its is very good if the steaks are cut into medallions, and cooked like that. This sauce is also good with chicken breasts.
