  A lovely, piquant relish/sauce which I made for a dinner recently to accompany roast gammon, gratin dauphinoise and vegetables. Very easy and can be prepared well in advance. I used half a red onion as I couldn't get a shallot.

  absolutely love this sauce. I live in Argentina so it goes well with the best of fillets and it always raises a few questions during dinner.

  i tried this but had the sauce warm instead! I heated the olive oil in a pan then put in the tomatoes and shallot, i then added the rest of the ingriediants, boiled and then warmed back up when i needed to serve! it was absoluteley loveley!!!! I would definateley recomend using the mustard in it though it makes it!!

  What can I say, this is an amazing sauce. I was doubtful at first as it tasted very strong but once it was served with the fillet steak it tasted great. I found it went well with the steak placed on a bed of wilted spinach and served with Gordons crushed new potatoes. Will definately be making this again

  Hello, I need some help please......this recipe sounds great, but I cannot tolerate the smell or taste of tarragon. Would anybody like to suggest an alternative herb? Many thanks, Shazza :)

  Shazza - it would still work really well if you just left the tarragon out. Or, if you want to add a different herb, basil and oregano both go well with tomato based sauces.

  Such an easy sauce & made a nice change from just serving plain with English mustard! I used a red onion as had no shallot, fresh basil instead of tarragon & wholegrain mustard. I heated the sauce through as the steak was cooking and after 'resting' the steak (as it says in Gordon's mix & match steak) I put it on the serving plate & poured the sauce over. Served with potato crush although will try Gordon's chunky oven chips next time!

  This Steak sauce was something I have never tasted before and can't wait to taste again!! Very versatile!!! We had it with Basil instead of Tarragon and it worked just as well. It was just delicious!!!

  Afraid I didn't like this at all. Found it very vinegar-y and completely took over any flavour from the fillet steak, which at £8 for two was wasted really.

  I would have given 5 stars but I didn't actually make it! Just adapted and used what I had to hand: garlic, soy sauce, ketchup, mustard, balsamic and lime juice. Fantastic.
