Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 250 grams Button mushrooms, sliced
- 2 small Shallots, finely minced
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
- 100 milliliters Madeira wine
- 500 milliliters Beef stock
- 3 sprigs Fresh thyme sprigs
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Heavy cream (optional)
Instructions
In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter with the olive oil.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and sauté for 6-8 minutes, or until they are golden brown and have released most of their moisture.
Stir in the minced shallots and garlic, cooking for another 2-3 minutes, until fragrant and softened.
Sprinkle the flour over the mushroom mixture and stir well to coat evenly. Cook the flour for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw taste.
Slowly pour in the Madeira wine, stirring constantly to deglaze the pan and incorporate the flour.
Add the beef stock and fresh thyme sprigs, stirring to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10-12 minutes, allowing the gravy to thicken.
Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Remove the thyme sprigs after simmering.
For a creamier texture, stir in the heavy cream (if desired) just before serving.
Serve the Madeira mushroom gravy warm, poured over oven roast or as a side accompaniment.
