Ingredients

  • 3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 1 shallot, finely diced
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1 sprig thyme
  • 2 cup (480ml) demi glace
  • 1 cup (240ml) beef stock
  • 1 cup (240ml) red wine
  • 3 Tbsp (40g) unsalted butter
  • Kosher salt and pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Melt butter in a large cast iron or saute pan. Add shallots and garlic and cook until translucent.
  2. Once the shallot and garlic have cooked, add thyme and bay leaf to the pan. Allow to cook for another 1-2 minutes.
  3. Deglaze the pan with red wine and reduce by half. Add the demi glace and beef stock to the pan.
  4. Reduce the sauce until it is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon. Season with salt and pepper, then pass through a fine mesh strainer into another pan.
  5. Bring sauce to a boil, then cut the heat from the pan. Whisk butter into the sauce to thicken and emulsify.
