Parsley Sauce Recipes

TRADITIONAL ENGLISH PARSLEY SAUCE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a medium-sized saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
• Stir in the flour and mustard (if using).
• Stir thoroughly to form a thick paste.
• Cook gently for 2 to 3 minutes more, watching the heat to ensure the paste does not burn. This will cook off the taste of raw flour in the finished sauce.
• Gradually whisk in the milk.
• Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 5 minutes, frequently whisking to make sure there are no lumps. The sauce should be quite thick but still pouring consistency. If too thick, add a little more milk.
• Add the fresh parsley and stir well.
• Season with a good pinch of sea salt and a few black pepper grinds. Taste and add more as needed.
• Keep the sauce warm, on low heat, until needed. If keeping sauce warm for more than 15 minutes, laying a piece of buttered parchment paper on the surface will prevent a skin from forming. If a slight skin does form, whisk thoroughly over heat, and it should disappear.
• Serve and enjoy.

PORK CHOPS IN GARLIC MUSHROOM SAUCE

Steps:

• Season both sides of pork chops with paprika, salt, and pepper.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat; add 2 tablespoons butter. Sear pork chops until golden brown and no longer pink in the center, 2 to 4 minutes per side. Remove pork chops from the skillet and set aside.
• Melt remaining butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add mushrooms and cook until golden and excess moisture evaporates, about 5 minutes. Add garlic and mustard; cook until garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Add flour to the skillet, stirring to remove any lumps. Slowly add beef broth, whisking until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, stirring often, until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Check for seasoning again.
• Return pork chops to the skillet and cook until heated through, about 1 minute. Serve hot.
