Just wondering what people think the best sauce to have with steak is and do they have a recipe for it?

Answer 1

Steak with creamy brandy peppercorn sauce, and try having it with Asparagus, and Jacket Potatoes topped with freshly chopped Chives, Crispy Bacon and Sour Cream, yum!

Recipe for 2 or 4 (depending on how hungry you are):

4 beef tenderloin filets, 7 oz. each
2 tbsp. whole black peppercorns
4 tbsp. butter
1 cup brown sauce
3/4 cup heavy cream
1/3 cup brandy
Salt and pepper to taste

Place the peppercorns on a cutting board or counter and coarsely crush them with a heavy pot or bottom of a skillet.
Lightly salt the steaks, then roll them in the peppercorns, pressing down the pepper into the steaks. Heat the butter in a large skillet until very hot. Add the steaks and cook over high heat for 2 minutes on each side until desired doneness. Lift them out of the skillet and keep warm on serving plate while making the sauce.

Deglaze the skillet with the brandy and let it flambe. Stir in the cream, scraping the bottom of the skillet to dissolve any meat juices. Add brown sauce and let reduce until desired consistency. Adjust seasoning. Pour over steak and serve immediately.

Steak stuffed with Gorgonzola and Madeira Sauce! Absolutely mouth watering!!!! Just put a slit in a thick steak like Fillet Mignon and stuff with Gorgonzola- Salt and pepper- sometimes I get fancy and use garlic and shallots- (If you use garlic and shallot -add to hot oil and remove as soon as you see browning) then add steak to pan- Pan sear and finish in the oven. Ton's of Madeira Sauce recipes on line-just google Madeira Sauce (stay with the professional chef recipes)! You won't be disappointed with this one!

Answer 3

Depends what sort of steak.
If we're talking fillet - something rich and elegant like a red wine jus.
Heat a pan so its scorching - add 250ml red wine
Reduce by 2/3
Add Finely cut shallot and 1 clove garlic.
Reduce heat to simmer after 2 min
Add some juices from meat and 1 stock cube
Touch of Tomato puree and Seasoning

Serve your fillet on a bed of Roasted veg and Dauphinoise potato. Drizzle sauce around plate - garnish with fresh chives.

Pepper sauce. A simple way to do the sauce is make up some gravy and set aside. Get a bit of brandy into the pan, make sure it sets alight add cracked black pepper (bout a teaspoon but it depends how much u are doing) Now add a bit of gravy mix together. Now add alittle double cream mix in . Thats your sauce done.

Answer 5

Well if it's a good steak I would use a little wine in the pan it's been cooked in to make a jus and serve it with onion rings that have been battered and deep fried.

second best is a nice horseradish sauce.

Answer 6

If you pan sear it the best sauce is to deglaze the pan with some Pinot Noir and reduce it to about half. The best sauce will be made with the juices from the steak.

Answer 7

Sirloin steak with Oyster sauce.

Answer 8

Surprisingly fruit goes very well with steak. Try pineapple salsa:

1 pineapple medium dice
4 tomatos seeded and medium dice
1 red onion medium dice
2 jalepeno roasted, seeded and finely chopped
2 oz lemon juice
2 Tb finely chopped fresh cilantro

Mix all ingredients together (cilantro should be added last) and serve.

I might also suggest a fruit chutney. I don't remember the recipe off the top of my head but search around for it.

Happy eating!

Answer 9

If prepared properly, any sauce will ruin what the cook/chef
intended.
however, if it's to dry or the cook ain't that great, I'd probably
go for A-1 steak sauce
