Instructions

Step 1

Toast your black peppercorns for 2-3 minutes and the pink for about 30 seconds until fragrant and they start popping. Grind roughly in the pestle and mortar and set aside.

Step 2

Melt butter over medium heat and fry shallots until fragrant and translucent (2-3mins).

Step 3

Add in garlic and fry for a minute or so until the garlic just begins to brown. Pour in Worcestershire sauce and beef stock, pepperconds and then stir in your cream. Add salt to taste.

Step 4

Reduce to a simmer until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. (8-12mins). It will thicken, just keep simmering and gently stirring. If you've cooked steak or any other meat you can stir in any resting juices just before you finish, just for extra flavour!

Step 5

Remove from heat and pour into jug. Just be aware it'll thicken the longer you leave it. Enjoy!
