Yields 4 servings
Port wine jelly
- 2 dl beef stock

Directions
Port wine jelly
Pour the beef stock and port wine into a small saucepan and reduce by half over medium heat. Stir in the butter and season with salt and pepper. The jelly should be glossy and slightly thick. Leave to cool to room temperature.
