Monkeygland Sauce for Steak created by Bokenpop aka Mad

This is another favourite restaurant item in South Africa. This piquant sauce has a rather off-putting name but nothing to do with monkeys, I promise!

I've known of the recipe for years. Just got round to making it from your recipe. Hubby and I are so glad I did. Loved it on our steak. Now thinking of what else to have it on. Thanks Ailsa

Thank you for a really great recipe. I decided to substitute the tomatoes for a tin of mexican style tomatoes and left off the tabasco sauce, it was quite a bit spicier than the typical restaurant sauce (due to my substitutions I am sure) but DH thought it was great and insisted that the recipe be added to the file IMMEDIATELY!

SO YUMMY!!!! The initial name for this sauce put me off but after my husband made it I couldn't get enough of it! As it simmers down the flavours develop and intensify and just become one fabulous immulsion. We added bacon at the very start with the onion and used wine vinegar and gooseberry chutney. Thank you so much for a truly delicious sauce!!! Oh my goodness!!! We had this again tonight and the flavour was even better. We had it on lamb chops and baked potatoes. Fantastic!!!
