Pub Style Sauces
Looking to re-create delicious pub style sauces at home? Check below to make diane, mushroom or pub gravy! Perfect on a schnitzel, steak, a bowl of chips … look, I won’t judge if you spoon it out of the pan!
Now, you can use different gravy powder if you want, but I won’t be responsible if it tastes bad! Maggi is the one I know works, as to the quantities below!
Diane Sauce
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp tomato sauce
300 ml thickened cream
2 tbsp Maggi gravy powder mixed with ½ cup hot water (to make a slurry)
Method
Sauté the garlic in a pan until fragrant.
Add Worcestershire sauce, tomato sauce and cream. Bring to a gentle boil.
Turn off the heat and stir in the gravy slurry.
If the sauce is too thin, add a little more gravy slurry.
If it becomes too thick, loosen with a splash of cream or water.
