How to Make Hunter's Sauce With Mushrooms

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 medium onion, finely chopped, and sauté until very tender, about 5-7 minutes.
  2. Add 8 ounces of cremini mushrooms, sliced, and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes, until softened.
  3. Pour in 1/2 cup dry white wine (such as Sauvignon Blanc or Chardonnay), bring to a simmer, and cook until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
  4. Stir in 2 tablespoons of tomato purée and 1/4 cup of beef gravy. Simmer gently for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  5. Season generously with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon of Maggi seasoning (or to taste). Add 1 tablespoon of fresh thyme or other herbs if desired.
  6. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Serve immediately over your favorite dish.
