Simple Steak with Red Wine Sauce


Nothing fancy, just season the steak with salt and pepper. Heat oil and butter in a pan, fry steak over the high heat. When both sides are brown, lower the heat and cook depends how you like it.

For the sauce, Heat 2 tablespoon olive oil, fry red onion (shallots) over low heat, then discard the shallots. Then fry garlic (if desired), drizzle with 2 tablespoon red wine, 1 tablespoon light soy sauce, stock (or water), salt and pepper to taste, and thicken with little flour.

Place the sauce on top of the steak. In here, I served it with Baked Creamy Mashed Potato, and blanched broccoli.

Cream Cheese Triple Chocolate Brownies

I used triple chocolate brownie mix given in our church, I'm telling you that mix is too sweet ( in my opinion). Anyways, instead of the usual prepared brownies I thought of adding cream cheese but lessen the sugar added. I'm satisfied with the results, the cake itself is soft and smooth.

1 packed of brownie mix (for 16 bars)

8 oz cream cheese
1/4 cup brown sugar (diluted in hot water)
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Prepare the brownie mix as per directed in a package. Reserve some for toppings later. In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, egg, and vanilla until smooth and fluffy. Spread the brownie mix in a prepared molder. Cover the brownie mix with cream cheese. Spread the left over brownie mix on top of cream cheese. Bake for 30 - 45 minutes for 170°C (375°F).

I made these into a small cupcake molder.
