• Reduce heat to medium; add 6 shallots, thinly sliced into rings. Cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 4 to 6 minutes.
• Add balsamic vinegar, coarsely chopped fresh parsley, and any accumulated juices from steaks; cook until sauce is just slightly reduced, about 1 minute. To serve, spoon shallot sauce over steaks.

PORK CHOPS WITH MUSTARD & SHALLOT SAUCE

• Add the vinegar and reduce for a few more minutes then add the wine and cook for a couple of minutes.
• Stir in the mustard and cream and bubble away until thickened.
• Serve with the pork chops and green beans.

CREAMY BREAD & SHALLOT SAUCE

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a deep non-stick pan. Add the shallots, cloves and bay leaves, and gently cook for 10 mins over a low heat until the shallots are soft and colouring a little. Pour in the milk, then part-cover the pan and leave to simmer on a very low heat for 10 mins.
• Remove the cloves, then add the bread and cream to the shallot mixture. Grate in half the nutmeg, then cook for 5 mins, or until the bread absorbs the milk and starts to break down a little but still has a texture. Can be made 1 day ahead (you may need to thin with a little milk). Grate over the remaining nutmeg to serve.

BUTTER SAUCE WITH SHALLOTS AND WINE

Steps:

• Combine shallots and wine in a small saucepan. Boil, and cook until liquid evaporates being careful not to burn shallots. Remove from heat and allow to cool about 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Add butter and olive oil to saucepan and whisk until it becomes thickened. If the pan is too hot the butter will curdle. Serve.

BUTTERY SHALLOT BREAD SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a pan, then add the shallots, cloves, thyme and bay and cook very, very gently for 15 mins until soft, translucent and pale golden.
• Remove the cloves, add the milk and pepper, then bring to a gentle simmer for 10 mins. Stir in the breadcrumbs, give it another 5 mins or so over a very low heat until the bread has plumped up nicely, then stir in the cream and nutmeg. Fish out the stalks from the thyme - the leaves will have fallen off. Season to taste. To serve, grate over a little more nutmeg, drizzle with a little more cream and decorate with a bay leaf.
