Directions

Cook Mode (Keep screen awake)

On a small pan, heat half the butter and onion.
Stir and cook until the onion is golden.
When sautéed, add the flour and stir very well.
While stirring, add the broth, the Worcestershire sauce and the Madeira wine.
As soon as it begins to boil, remove from the heat.
Strain the sauce through a strainer and put aside.
Season the meat with a little salt and pepper (to taste).
In a frying pan, heat the remaining butter, garlic and bay leaf.
Fry the steaks on both sides, between 1 to 4 minutes on each side, as desired.
Once the steaks are fried, remove them to a plate with absorbent paper and discard the garlic and bay leaf.
On the frying pan you fried the steaks on, add the mushrooms and sauté.
Finally, add the sauce and simmer for about 2 minutes.
Serve the steaks with the sauce on top and accompanied with fries.

Recipe Tips

•

For the best flavor, let the sirloin steaks sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before cooking. This helps them cook more evenly and enhances the overall taste.

•

When sautéing the mushrooms, cook them over medium-high heat without overcrowding the pan. This allows them to brown nicely and develop deeper flavors. If necessary, sauté them in batches to avoid steaming.

•

A common mistake is adding the flour directly to the sauce without making a roux first. Instead, melt the butter, add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, then sprinkle the flour and cook for a minute before adding the Madeira wine and beef broth. This will prevent lumps and create a smoother sauce.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I substitute the Madeira wine with another type of wine or liquid?

Yes, if you don't have Madeira wine, you can substitute it with dry sherry, port wine, or even a blend of red wine and a little bit of broth. For a non-alcoholic option, you could use grape juice mixed with a splash of vinegar.

How can I store leftovers from this dish?

Store any leftover steaks and mushrooms in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, gently warm them on the stovetop or in the microwave until heated through.

What should I do if the sauce is too thick?

If your sauce turns out too thick, you can simply thin it out by stirring in a little additional beef broth or water until you reach the desired consistency.
