Directions
- 1
Season the beef with garlic, onion, salt, and pepper. Toss well and let rest for 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
- 2
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef quickly, keeping it slightly pink inside, about 2–3 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- 3
Pour the hot beef broth into the pan, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Bring to a boil and simmer until reduced by half.
- 4
Stir in the tomato sauce and cook for 5 minutes, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens slightly.
- 5
Add the mustard, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce. Stir to combine and simmer for another 5 minutes over medium heat.
- 6
Gradually pour in the heavy cream, stirring gently to create a smooth, unified sauce. Reduce heat to low and cook for 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning and serve over white rice or egg noodles.
💡 Chef's Tip
Bring heavy cream to room temperature before adding it to the sauce to keep it silky. Avoid boiling after adding cream — it should only gently simmer.
