by Wilma Koekoek

The creamy gorgonzola sauce is a perfect complement to a fine piece of beef. Great with pasta.

Ingredients (for 2 persons)

  • 2 steaks of appr. 100 gr. each
  • 5 shallots
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 50 gr. gorgonzola (or other blue cheese)
  • 30 gr. butter
  • 1 dl dry white wine
  • 1/8 l creme fraiche
  • salt & pepper

Preparation

  • Crumble the cheese. Cut the shallots lengthwise in 6 parts and slice the garlic.
  • Dust the meat with salt & pepper and quickly brown it on both sides in hot butter. Take the meat out of the pan and keep warm under alufoil.
  • Gently fry the shallot & garlic in the remaining butter for about 4 minutes. Then add the wine, stir till boiling. Reduce the wine to half of its original volume.
