Steak and Mushroom sauce Recipe

Working in France I was so used to eating steak just with jus ( Basically it’s a beef broth reduction) it taste so good but requires so much time and effort. But when I came to Australia and worked in pubs and steakhouses I realized there are 4 main sauces that you can order with your steak, chicken schnitzel, grilled chicken, etc. and mushroom sauce was one of them. The creaminess of this sauce complements well with red meat.

Steak and Mushroom sauce Ingredients

To cook a good steak all you need is a good quality steak, further down in my article I have explained the cuts of meat that are considered good. Salt, pepper, garlic, thyme and butter. That’s all you need to cook a good, juicy flavourful steak.

Here is the trick, you can make 2 sauces out of this base, one is creamy mushrooms sauce the other is creamy peppercorn sauce, to make peppercorn sauce simply take out the mushrooms and you will have peppercorn sauce

This mushroom sauce goes with anything. Add it on grilled chicken, chicken schnitzel, grilled fish. It is so flavoursome.

Making steak and mushrooms sauce is easy and requires only one pan. The reason why we use the same pan that the steak was cooked to make the sauce is, the meat itself will release so much flavour from the fat. And using that as a base will build up the final flavour of the sauce. Don’t bother washing your pan, simply use the same pan to make your sauce. Well, less washing as well so it’s a win-win.

Also finally adding in the resting juice from the steak is the key to optimum flavour. building flavour little by little into the final sauce.

How to cook steak like a chef

I have spent years and years cooking steak and perfecting every doneness of a steak such as bleu, rare, medium-rare, medium, and well-done.

The doneness of steak: Cool story, when you spend years in the kitchen cooking steak you can automatically tell the doneness of the steak by just touching the steak. the softer it is considered to be on the rare side but the harder the meat it is on the medium-well side. Well, that only comes with experience so for you all as home cooks you can use a temperature probe and use the below chart as a guide according to the doneness you require.
