About

This sauce is creamy and rich, made with the veal sauce base. I serve it with grilled beef or veal.

Ingredients

3 fl oz (75 ml) red wine<

Sauce
Gluten-free

Method

Whisk the mustard and red wine together.
Bring to the boil, then add the veal sauce base.
Add cream then boil hard for 2 minutes before whisking in the butter.
Finish the sauce with capers, salt and pepper. If you are not fond of capers you may substitute a teaspoonful of lemon juice.
