Hi All,

What does Bjørn mean by "add cream for a sauce"? How is
this done?

Many thanks,

Sorry - should have been clearer. During the frying there will be some
liquid in the pan. At medium heat, add your choice of cream - heavy, light,
sour - little by little, keep it at a low boil. You may want to let the
resulting sauce thicken. I add the cream after the meat is cooked through.
Experiment with small portions! Oh, and mushrooms will add to the
experience. Delicious. It's too late to go to the store, will have to go
tomorrow ...

What about adding a few slices of onion to the mix?

Well, Todd, what do *you* think would happen if you added
onion slices to the mix? Remember that you started out with
sauteed onion.

Hi Bjørn,

Missed that you had already sauted onions.

I cooked up a pan of steaks for the week. I added
1/4 inch slice of an onion (chopped) to the pan. Then
removed the steaks when finished. Let the remaining
liquid and onion caramelize. Then poured in about a
cups of organic heavy whipping cream. Let it bubble.

Oh man! This is the best gravy I have ever made! And
4 grams or carbs (the onion) or less for the whole mess.

Thank you!
