Blue Cheese sauce for Steak
I fancy something different with my steak tonight. I saw a couple of recipies on River Cottage for Broccoli with Blue Cheese and they looked nice and thought I would try the same adding a steak and some potatoes.
I found this recipe that seems nice http://www.timesonline.co.uk/tol/lif...cle1057315.ece Any other suggestions for a nice sauce? and also a recommended cheese? I was thinking of a mildish blue cheese. |

steaks should never have a sauce just a put on little knob of butter while you are resting the meat |

I like to deglaze the pan with some cognac/brandy/madeira then add some creme fraiche/cream and finish with a good twist of black pepper.

I tend to prefer my steaks plain and simple. Having said that, Pioneer Woman's blue cheese steak sauce is AMAZING. I just have it on mashed potatoes instead of steak. Seriously, it is AMAZING.

Steak with blue cheese sauce is my absolute favourite! There is a restaurant near me which does the most amazing one. Everytime I go there I try and resist it, and end up looking at the menu for ages trying to decide on something else, but in the end I always give in to it and order it. Yum yum, made my mouth water now.

Never had blue cheese with steak... is it not a bit strong?
I like a Bernaise or Cafe de Paris with mine now and again but I usually have it as it comes. |

It is quite strong, that's why I love it. I find I don't like mild cheese sauce, it makes me gag.

Blue cheese and garlic!! That sounds like heaven to me. As you can tell, I like strong flavours.

Steak au poivre is the french classic - cream and whole pickled green peppercorns.

Mmm this is what I want for dinner tomorrow. Although I might try it with a slightly milder white stilton.

Can't beat Roquefort for a steak sauce.

Gorgonzola and pink peppercorn sauce.
Fry 1 tablespoon of pink peppercorns in butter for a few mins, pour 100ml white wine into pan and leave to sizzle over a high heat for about 1 min, lower heat and add Gorgonzola cubes (or any blue cheese) stir for a few mins until sauce is smooth. Simple and delish!

A very thin slice or two (or three) qquite near the end of cooking - so it's just melting at the end - sets off a a good bit off steak superbly

I just tried this. OMG can you say lush? Bit sickly though so not too much needed but that was totally high quality food. I had to do it in the microwave too as the gas isn't working (the sauce not the steak) and it was lush so i can't imagine how nice it would be if done on the hob.
![]() Gonna go try PW's simple pork chop recipe tomorrow.
