Notes

  1. Cook in olive oil or butter to prepare the sauce.
  2. Beef broth with bones is more recommended to serve sauce with beef steak.
  3. Monitor the salt quantity as the beef broth is salty in taste.
  4. If you don't want to use cream then switch with milk.
  5. Avoid to place cream on high heat otherwise it may curdle.
  6. Continous stirring is important to give a smooth texture to the sauce. Use freshly crushed black peppercorns.
