How to Make Garlic And Rosemary Jus

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over low heat.
  2. Add 2 cloves of minced garlic and 1/2 small finely chopped onion to the melted butter. Cook gently until softened and golden, about 5-7 minutes, being careful not to brown.
  3. Stir in 2 sprigs of fresh rosemary and cook for 1 minute, or until fragrant.
  4. Pour in 1 cup of chicken or lamb stock and stir to combine.
  5. Increase the heat to bring the stock to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to a gentle simmer.
  6. Simmer the jus for 15-20 minutes, or until reduced by about one-third and slightly thickened. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  7. Taste and season generously with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  8. Add more fresh rosemary if desired. If you prefer a thicker consistency, whisk together 1 teaspoon of cornstarch with 2 teaspoons of cold water to form a slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the simmering jus until thickened.
  9. Serve hot immediately over your favorite roast meat, potatoes, or vegetables.
