It’s well over 3 years since we had anything even resembling a Steak. But as we didn’t manage to eat anything on Thursday by combining two days budgets we sort of got away with a real threat.
How you cook your steak is a matter of personal choice. But if you fancy having a go at your own Peppercorn Sauce on the cheap….
Ingredients:-
Slightly cracked Peppercorns
Double Cream
Beef Stock
Shallots,Finely diced
2 cloves of Garlic, minced
Margarine
Chopped Parsley
Salt
Method:-
(1) Soften the Shallots and Garlic over a low heat in Margarine.
(2) Add the Beef Stock, simmer for about 15 minutes.
(3) Add the Peppercorns.
(4) Stir in the Cream until it thickens.
(5) Simmer for a further 10 minutes and season to taste.
(6) Add the chipped Parsley and serve.
Pork is the cheapest meat weight for weight at the moment. Ribs and other cheap cuts are even better. A whole side of ribs for a little over £3? Why not.
