Directions
To prepare red wine sauce, cut the onion, garlic, and carrot into small pieces.
Heat the olive oil in a pan and sauté the onion, garlic and carrot until they are soft.
Add the tomato paste and sugar and bring it to a boil briefly.
Pour the red wine into the pan and let it simmer for about 10 minutes to evaporate the alcohol.
Add the beef broth, the bay leaves, and the rosemary branch. Let the sauce simmer for another 10 minutes.
Pass the sauce through a sieve to remove all solid components. Return the sauce to the pan and let it simmer over low heat until it reaches the desired consistency. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Serve the red wine sauce warm over your chosen meat. Bon Appetit!
