how do you make diane sauce?

Answer 1

CLASSIC STEAK DIANE

4 pieces fillet steak 1/4 inch think
1 oz (25 g) butter
2 tbs oil
worcestershire sauce
2 tbs lemon juice
1 1/2 tbs finely chopped or grated onion
2 tbs chopped parsley

Heat butter and oil. Fry steaks for 1-2 minutes on each side. Remove from pan and keep hot. Add worcestershire sauce to butter and oil in the pan, then add lemon juice and warm through. Add onion and parsley and cook slowly for 1 1/2 minutes. Spoon sauce over steaks and serve immediately.

Answer 2

a couple of versions - all good - first one is most authentic - second one is low fat

Steak Diane is tradtionally made with a thinly pounded steak, and a cognac, butter, and shallot sauce that is flambéed right before serving to great dramatic effect.

Doing some research into Steak Diane, I found that the "Diane" part refers to Diana, the Greco-Roman goddess of the hunt, and "a la Diane" sauces were typically served with venison and game meat in centuries past. It was probably New York hotels that popularized the flambéed steak version.

The recipe calls for pan-frying the steak to brown it for flavor then finishing it off in the oven, then serving it with the Diane sauce poured over it. No flames are involved.

You can bbq or grill the steaks instead though

a slightly different version of the recipe calls for a couple teaspoons of lemon juice instead of the tomato paste, half as much mustard, and a whole cup of sliced shallots. Otherwise, very similar.

this Diane sauce to be good, but quite strong. you may prefer to cut the mustard and tomato paste in half.

it can also be made with chicken, using chicken broth, and serving it mixed in with pasta.

1 cup beef broth
4 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp tomato paste
4 (6-ounce) center cut beef tenderloin steaks or another cut of your choice
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground pepper
2 teaspoons butter
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/4 cup finely minced shallots
4 Tbsp cognac or brandy
2/3 cup heavy cream

1 Whisk together broth, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and tomato paste; set aside.

2 Start preparing the steak. Sprinkle salt and pepper on both sides of the steak. Working in batches, heat butter and oil in a skillet, add the steak and increase the heat to high, brown each side for 1 1/2 minutes, remove steaks to a cookie sheet and finish in the oven at 350°F for about 10 minutes.

Answer 4

You fry your fillet steak in a very hot pan with oil, butter, mushrooms and onions and then when the steak is done take it out of the pan and put a good slosh of brandy in the pan so that it really bubbles so that the alcohol has burnt off, add a good swirl of double cream, a dash of worcestershire sauce and I think thats about it - you make the sauce all in the same pan as your steak.
