Saucy

Ok my friends, today I would like to share with you my favourite sauce. It is so simple and has become my staple sauce to serve when J has worked his magic on the BBQ. It’s summer here at the moment and J loves nothing more than taking over the cooking reins when it comes to burning coals. All I have to do is mention a BBQ and his face lights up. I buy some of the best fillet steaks I can get my hands on and as soon as I get them home J starts on the marinade for them. There are a few main ingredients like seeded mustard, soy sauce and balsamic vinegar but everything else just depends on the mood he's in.

A little trick we learned from the lovely Nigella Lawson is to combine the marinade steak in a glad bag before you freeze them. That way they are still marinading when they are freezing and thawing.

But I digress from the sauce. It's a passed on sauce - my sisters’ neighbours' husband first made this delicious sauce to accompany a BBQ. My sister made the sauce for my Mum who in turn made it for me. I have done my best to pass this on to others and now, with the help of this blog, I can share it with everyone.

Pictured above are all the ingredients you need. The beauty of the sauce is that you can chop and change it to suit your individual tastes and needs. But basically, you fry up some chopped mushrooms and chopped red pepper (capsicum). While the veggies are still crunchy you add some cream a dash of Tabasco and heaps of cracked pepper. Stir until it reaches your desired consistency and serve. It’s a knock out every time.
