Ingredients

If you don't have the Cookidoo app for your Thermomix follow the recipe below:

  • 150 g (5.3 oz) shallots halved
  • 25 g (0.9 oz) butter
  • 100 g (½ cup) whisky (see Notes)
  • 250 g (1 cups) beef stock
  • 1 tsp cornflour
  • 1 tsp fine sea salt
  • 0.5 tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Place the shallots and butter in the mixing bowl then chop for 3 seconds/speed 5. Scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl with the spatula then sauté for 5 minutes /Varoma/speed slow (spoon symbol).
  • Add the whisky and stock then cook, without the measuring cup, for 5 minutes /98C/speed slow (spoon symbol).
  • Add the cornflour, salt and pepper then cook, without the measuring cup, for 2 minutes/98C/speed 0.5 then, with measuring cup in place, blend for 30 seconds /speed 9.
  • Transfer the sauce to a serving jug and enjoy it along with your Burns supper.

Notes

  • Whisky choice - the first time I made this whisky sauce in the Thermomix, I used a blended whisky, but when making it again, and every time since, I use a single malt from Islay.   I must admit, as much as I don't like whisky and most especially the smell of whisky from Islay, it is absolutely delicious in this sauce!
  • Alcohol-free option - replace the whisky with cider vinegar or more stock for a family-friendly version.
  • Additional ingredients - trying add Dijon mustard, caramelised onions or fresh herbs like thyme or parsley for a unique twist.
