Fillet Of Steak With A Pepper Sauce

Tender fillet topped with a pepper sauce serve with garlic mash or roasted new potatoes and vegetables.

In a saucepan mix red wine , brandy , red wine vinegar , garlic clove , beef stock , water and crushed pepper.

Bring to boil then reduce heat to a simmer , simmer for about 10 minutes.

You want to reduce slightly.

Mix cornflour with a little water and add , stir until mixture thickens add double cream and light cream.

Stir and pour into heatproof jug to serve.

For the steaks heat an oiled pan , once hot add steaks and sear a couple of minutes on each side.

Then cook until desired doneness.

I bought really thick steaks so i cooked them 20-25 minutes for medium rare.

So less cooking time if they are thin.

Once cooked remove from pan and allow to stand for 5 minutes before serving.
