Steak With Onion and Mushroom Sauce

Sometimes you'll find, that, you'll cook one thing and it will inspire you to cook something else. This recipe was inspired from the beef and mushroom pie recipe. As I was eating the pie, I was thinking it would be just as nice without the pastry served with mashed potatoes and mixed vegetables, I wasn't wrong, what could be nicer than a steak with a rich mushroom sauce?

Steak With Onions And Mushroom Sauce

1 large onion, roughly chopped
garlic
150g mushrooms
large knob of butter
300 ml beef stock
1/2 whiskey tumbler port/sherry (200ml)

1 Tbsp cornflour
salt and pepper to taste
2 beef steaks

1. Gently fry the onions, mushrooms and garlic, in the butter, season to taste with salt and pepper.

2. Mix the port and the cornflour. Add the stock to the onions and mushrooms, then add the port mixture, bring to a boil, stirring until thickened.

3. Grill the beef, until cooked to desired doneness.

Serve with mashed potato and mixed vegetables.
