40 g butter

2 banana shallot, finely diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

Soak the porcini mushrooms in 350 ml recently boiled water for 10 minutes. Remove the mushrooms, roughly chop, reserve the mushroom stock.

Melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium low heat. Sauté the shallot with a generous pinch of salt for 5 minutes, add the garlic and continue to sauté until the onions are soft and translucent.

Turn the heat to high, add chopped porcini mushrooms and Madeira along with a good grind of black pepper,  bring to a boil and allow to bubble until reduced by half. Add the mushroom stock and herbs, reduce by half again.

Add the cream and allow the sauce to thicken slightly for a couple of minutes. Check the seasoning. Pour into a warm jug to serve.
