Equipment
- 1 Large saute pan or sauce pan
- 1 Wooden spoon
- 1 Plastic funnel Note 1
- 1 Bowl or glass jar with lid
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 1 cup/250 ml heavy cream
- 200 grams/7 oz gorgonzola
Instructions
- Butter: place a large saute pan on the stove at high heat. Add the butter and allow to melt.
- Sauté: add the garlic, salt and pepper to the melted butter. Use a wooden spoon to stir for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the garlic to cook.
- White wine vinegar: add the white wine vinegar to the pan and stir to combine.
- Cream: pour the cream into the pan and stir to combine.
- Gorgonzola: add the chopped cheese pieces into the centre of the pan, keep the heat on high and allow these to melt, Stir reasonably regularly throughout this time. If the sauce starts to bubble at the edges but the cheese hasn't fully melted, turn the heat down slightly. Continue stirring until the gorgonzola has fully melted and the sauce has a consistent texture.
- Serve: turn the heat off, pour the sauce into a bowl using a plastic funnel and spoon it over cooked steak, chicken, pork, fish or vegetables.
Notes
- Note 1 - Plastic funnel: the sauce will be hot when we are pouring it through here, but it happens very quickly so it won't melt.
- Note 2 - Volume: The recipe will make 1 cup of sauce.
