Tender slices of tongue in a glossy Madeira sauce are old-school French bistro fare: rich, elegant and still intimidating to many diners.

Serves: 4 people

Preparation time: 60 min

Ingredients

  • Beef tongue – 1.5 kg
  • Onion – 1
  • Carrot – 1
  • Celery stalk – 1
  • Bay leaf – 2
  • Peppercorns – 1 tsp
  • Butter – 30 g
  • Madeira – 150 ml
  • Stock – 300 ml
  • Cornstarch – 1 tbsp

Method

Simmer the tongue with onion, carrot, celery, bay and peppercorns until very tender, then peel and slice it. Reduce Madeira and stock in a pan, whisk in a little cornstarch slurry and finish with butter. Return the tongue to the sauce to warm through and serve.
