Ingredients
- 500 ml Pure Beef, Chicken or Game Stock
- 150 ml Red or White Wine
- 150 ml Water
- Cornflour
- Salt and Pepper
Instructions
- Roast your joint on a bed of cut veg eg. carrots sliced in half length ways, whole cloves of garlic, onions quartered, celery sticks, rosemary & thyme.
- Once roasted remove your joint of meat or bird, from the tray and wrap it in 3 sheets of foil and allow to rest for at least ½ hour to relax the meat.
- Drain any excess fat from the roasting tray.
- Place the tray with the trivet of veg onto the hob and add the wine. Allow to simmer and reduce by half.
- Add the Pure Stock along with approximately 150ml of water (preferably your veg water) to the tray.
- Continue to simmer while you deglaze the pan, stirring and lifting the caramelised meat juices.
- Pass through a sieve into a saucepan, carefully squeezing the veg to release more flavour.
- Add any juices drained from the rested meat, thicken to your liking with some cornflour slaked with a little cold water.
- Season lightly and continue to simmer gently and serve.
