No, I'm not sure why either...
I got a frenzied(ish) email from a mate asking me to ring him...ON HIS OFFICE PHONE. I duly rang, not quite knowing what to expect; so I was surprised when after the usual pleasantries he started talking about a steak sauce he'd cooked. I'm no great gastronome and, frankly, as happy as I was for him I didn't know why he was telling me this. Well, he asked me to put it on my blog. No, I still don't know why either. The below is a cut and paste job of the recipe. What a Fanny (Craddock). Feedback welcome, I suppose. Just remember not to make any misteaks.
The Danny Read Steak Sauce Sensation
"Slap it on your steak and smile"
Ingredients: Half white onion, 5 shallots, half yellow pepper, 1 green chilli, 5 mushrooms, 6 cherry tomatoes, redcurrant jelly, tomato puree, red wine.
Heat some oil in a pan. Meanwhile, chop the vegetables into very small pieces.
Put all the chopped veg in to the pan and stir for 3 minutes on a medium heat.
Put 1 ½ teaspoons of the redcurrant jelly into the pan and stir in.
Put 1 ½ to 2 teaspoons of tomato puree in and stir in
Add a splash of red wine and stir in.
Let simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour over your steak and try not to come in your pants. It will be difficult.
